Why can I not open Excel Documents emailed to me?
I have just installed Microsoft Outlook 2003. I can no longer open Excel
documents. The message I get is 'cannot find specified file'. When I open Excel it tells me the office assistant could not be started, please re run. This did not happen before I installed MS Outlook. I can no longer find my Office Professional installation programme so I assume this now means I cannot use Excel. |

Sometimes one of these works when you double click on a file in windows explorer
and it doesn't work (similar to your Outlook problem): 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.
