Add-In will not allow worksheet to be opened.
 
When I double click on an Excel file and I have a particular add-in
installed, Excel opens but the file I double clicked on does not. If I have
Excel opened first, when I double click on the file it will open.

Any thoughts?

Add-In will not allow worksheet to be opened.
 
First, check to make sure the workbook isn't actually open:

Window|Arrange|Tiled

If it's not visible, then sometimes one of these works:

Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

--- or ---

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's
factory defaults.
