XLS Files Default Program
I have Office 2007 and for some reason I cannot set my default program to
Exel for XLS files. I went to the chage default program section - I have two files in my Microsoft Office 12 Folder (Office 10 does not have anything). One is Excel, the next is excelcnv . Right now excelnv is the default program but when I click on or try to download an xls file the computer thinks for a second and then nothing happens. I can open these files only if I open excel first and then go through the excel menu to open them. Any suggestions? |
