Default Error: Cannot open two documents with the same name


I moved my Excel files (Microsoft Office 97) from an ME box to an XP

Home
machine via LAN connection, shared folder.

When I open an Excel sheet, I get an error, "Cannot open 2

documents with
the same name." I click OK and then the sheet opens.

I do not have duplicate excel files on the XP machine.

This will happen to not all Excel files, just a large hand full of

them.

This will even happen after a fresh reboot, open My Documents and

then
click
on an Excel file.


Paul,

Did you ever find what caused the problem of duplicate files? I have
the exact same situation but can't tell if your apparently identical
problem was ever solved. If so, would you please let me know how you
fixed it?

You can private mail me at if you wish.

Thanks very much.

Bill
