I am trying to delete several files I have saved because when I go in to edit
them it does not save - see previous thread. When I try to delete them it tells me they are open or locked for editing. I have looked at the advanced options and it shows it unlocked for editing and I know it's not open because it's not there, unless it's hidden somewhere and I don't know where to find it. I have other files that work fine. This ONE is a problem. -- Jo Elaine |

If the files are on your C: drive (or any local drive), try rebooting and then
deleting the files. Don't open excel when you do this. Just use windows explorer. If our files are on a network drive, I'd ask the IT folks to reboot that server and then try deleting the files.
