I have tried to open the file from within excel and also from my docs. The
error message I get is that is that the file may be read only or encrypted. Do you have any solutions? Much appreciated! Anne Marie "Gord Dibben" wrote: Do you get any error message?

You said you get a message indicating that the file is read only.
So open the file as a read only file and then save it with a different name. Dave -- Brevity is the soul of wit. "Anne Marie" wrote: How do you open as a read only file?

After I try to open the file I get the message then I press the OK button and
it closes the message. I can't access it all. I wish I could read only, but I can't. Anne Marie "Dave F" wrote: You said you get a message indicating that the file is read only.
