Green means it is encrypted in NTFS, and you will need to access it
using the account you encrypted it in. You may want to look up encrypting in the Windows Help. un impressed with excel wrote: My xls file is green in windows explorer.

It is an Operating system and File system encryption issue. It is not an
Excel encryption issue. You might try r-clicking on it in Explorer, and select Propeties, Advanced and UNcheck Encrypt contents. Otherwise I suggest you post to the operating system group detailing how you encrypted and what has happened to your file and account since the encryption was done. un impressed with excel wrote: HI Bob.
