Why cant I click an excel file to open it w/o opening excel 1st?
Hi Dallas
Try this ToolsOptionsGeneral uncheck "Ignore other Applications" Exit Excel and try again If this doesn't work try to re-register Excel Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar 1 ) StartRun "excel.exe /unregserver"(no quotes)OK. 2) StartRun "excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK. See the space between exe and /regserver You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe. In that case StartRun "C:\yourpath\excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl "Dallas" wrote in message ... I am using Office 2003, and Windows XP Professional. I used to be able to double click an Excel file to open it. Now, I have to go to Excel, open it first, then search and click the file I want. I think this started after some Office updates. Help, anyone? |
