have excel workbook with 14 plus pages (136kb size). Can see it as icon, see
properties, but when i try open in excel nothing happens. It was okay
yesterday!

On the Window menu, click Unhide.

If the Unhide command is unavailable, the workbook does not contain hidden
sheets. If both the Rename and Hide commands are unavailable, the workbook is
protected from structural changes. You'll need to remove protection from the
workbook to determine whether sheets are hidden; removing protection may
require a password.

If you double click on the icon, does excel open?

If yes, try file|Print preview.

If you can see the data to be printed, then maybe the worksheet window is just
out of view of the application window.

Try: Window|Arrange|tiled and resize the way you like it.

If excel doesn't open the file...

Sometimes one of these works when you're having trouble with double clicking on
the file in windows explorer:

Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

--- or ---

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's
factory defaults.

Maybe one of these will work for you.
