When opening up an excel file from out the applicatiuon it opens the
applictaion but no file just a blank application screen, would really
apreciate if someone could help me as this is quite a big thing and none of
my excel files will open.

If you do a file|Print preview, do you see your data?

If yes, try:
window|arrange|tiled and resize the way you like.

If no...

Sometimes one of these works when you're having trouble with double clicking on
the file in windows explorer:

Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

--- or ---

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's
factory defaults.

Maybe one of these will work for you.
