Lots of people have praised OpenOffice.org for saving their data and code.

http://www.openoffice.org, a 60-65 meg download or a CD

There are commercial recovery services. I've never used it, but you might want
to check into:
http://www.officerecovery.com

And sometimes newer versions of excel can open files that older versions can't.
(And sometimes just different versions may work, too!)

Ps. Sometimes people open an excel file in MSWord and then save it as a Word
document (with a .xls extension). This can break the file, too.

You could try opening the file (or a copy of the file) in MSWord. If it opens
there, you could copy and paste back to xl.

But lots of things will be lost.

Good luck,

Ps. Do you have a backup?

yes I had a Word document futzed - openoffice opened it and I saved it
back in word-format - I think some formatting/fonts got translated
into something else but otherwise it got it all back
