Excel 97-2003 files won't open in 2007?
Hi
What error do you get? I have saved and opened lots of files from XL2007 in 97-2003 format without any problem - so far. -- Regards Roger Govier "Dwyndl" wrote in message ... I saved an excel file as 97-2003 but now it won't open with excel 2007. How do I get it to open? |

One problem I've had with opening XL 03 files in XL 07 is if I already have a
spreadsheet open in XL 07, and am in the middle of editing a formula, and then try to open another workbook, XL 07 seems to hang up on me. Don't know if that's the problem here, though.

It tells me that the .xls file that I am trying to open is not formatted
properly. What I did was open a file from my flash drive, which I have been using for months. This file was working fine and I saved the info back to my flash drive as a 97-2003 file so I could still use it with other computers. When I went in a few minutes later to make another change it wouldn't open properly. If I tell it to ignore I get a page with a lot of "y"s. Today I tried to open the file here at work with excel 2003 and it is doing the same thing. I fear that I have lost my info and it is very important. "Roger Govier" wrote: Hi What error do you get?
