"My Excel spreadsheets have to open in MS Works" followed by "fix it so that when I click to open an Excel spreadsheet, it opens with Excel" In which application would you like them to open? What format are these workbooks? Excel format or MS works format? In which application were they created/saved? What is the file extension?

Is there some way to fix it so that when I click to open an Excell spreadsheet, it opens with Excel? Thanks. |
