open & save old xls file
I have a number of linked workbooks in xls 97 (win98) which have transferred
to XP Office 2003. Some workbooks open with error message (extended long file name like 9111111111111!) and will accept data but will not save. What can I do to save these workbooks please? |

open & save old xls file
go back to xl97, and change the names so they are much shorter.
then save them. -- regards, Tom Ogilvy "quince" wrote in message ... I have a number of linked workbooks in xls 97 (win98) which have transferred to XP Office 2003.
