Default An Excel 2007 file I had previously used, will not open

I had a file named budget. My wife set up another excel 2007 with the name
budget so that when I wanted to go back into "my" budget, I received the
message that since there were two files named budget, I could not open "my"
budget. I renamed the files so each is now different. However, now I can
not open "my" budget. My wife's file budget opens and works normally and I
can open other excel 2007 files with no problem. I have a problem only with
the original "my" budget.

Any help on this would be appreciated!

Try finding the "my" file in My Documents...or wherever you have it stored
(via Windows Explorer)...and double click on it there.

If it opens, you might want to try saving as...a different name than the
other 2 files.
