Error Code: "Too many different cell formats"
 

I have a somewhat large, multi-page workbook that consistently gives me the
above error code and does not allow me to make change or enter additional
formulas. Anybody know anything about this?

Hi,

Try opening the file while excel runs in safe mode, then remove some of the
formats:

Start/Run: excel.exe /s

A few people have said that OpenOffice.Org has been able to open the file. Then
they clean it up and save it there. Then excel can open that cleaned up
version.
