Reportable Error in xla - Desperate
Hi
Please help..... A serious reportable error prevents me opening a developmental xla which has taken a long time to write and the only safe copy I have is several days old. Converting it to an xls still does not get me anywhere. How can I recover from this disastrous situation? Geoff |

Geoff,
Change the extension to .xls and disable macros when opening the file. -- Jim Cone San Francisco, USA http://www.realezsites.com/bus/primitivesoftware (Excel Add-ins / Excel Programming) "Geoff" wrote in message Hi Please help.....

Reportable Error in xla - Desperate
Some tips here... http://www.fdrlab.com/tips/excel.html No, I don't know anything about the company or their services. I would make a copy of the file before making any recovery efforts. -- Jim Cone San Francisco, USA http://www.realezsites.com/bus/primitivesoftware (Excel Add-ins / Excel Programming) "Geoff" wrote in message Jim How do i turn macros off?

Reportable Error in xla - Desperate
Jim
ok I set the security to ask for permission to open macros which I then denied and that enabled me to get into the file. Phew...... At least I can now begin to sort out where the problem may be. Many thanks for your help, I WAS beginning to panic. Geoff "Jim Cone" wrote: Some tips here... http://www.fdrlab.com/tips/excel.html No, I don't know anything about the company or their services.
