Excel file does not open when selected
 

Hello,
We are having trouble opening an excel document from our shared drive. If
we go to File/Open from the excel menu bar, the file does open. However, if
we are not in the excel program, and click an excel file on the shared drive
the excel opens, but nothing shows up. I think there must be something in
the file setup. Please help. Thank you so much.
