Only happens with a specific workbook:

I load it, it loads, and then it freezes. Will only let me...

1) Pull up task manager and hard quit.
2) Lets me select a different sheet, and once I do that, everything is
fine.

Anyone heard of Excel doing this before? Anyone have a solution?

If it only happens to one workbook, I'd guess that there was a problem with that
one workbook.

It could be corrupted. If it is, it's time to start (or past time) to recreate
that workbook.

You may have some luck trying to open that file with a newer version of excel.
xl2002+ might be able to open it????

Or maybe OpenOffice (free spreadsheet program) would work for you:
http://www.openoffice.org, a 60-65 meg download or a CD

Lots of people have saved lots of work by using OpenOffice to open files that
excel wouldn't.
