Read my response at this discussion web page. they had problems with .pdf.
You may be havving the same problem with .xls. Go to xls instead of pdf in my response. There is a %1 parameter that may be missing in your window explorer when opening EXCEL files. http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...e-5848a1fe8c74 "jjuan" wrote: im using office 2000 sp3. when i try to open an excel file by double click the file or right click the file then Open suddenly the excel open but no workbook open.but when i open the file through the file menu of excel or draging the file in excel, the file open. what is happened to my excel? please help |

opening excel file
Sometimes one of these works when you're having trouble with double clicking on
the file in windows explorer: 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. Maybe one of these will work for you. jjuan wrote: im using office 2000 sp3. when i try to open an excel file by double click the file or right click the file then Open suddenly the excel open but no workbook open.but when i open the file through the file menu of excel or draging the file in excel, the file open. what is happened to my excel? please help -- Dave Peterson |

when excel is opened (a workbook must also be open), then go to
Tools=Options and see if Ignore Other Applications is checked. If so, then uncheck it. A second cause of the problem can be solved by closing excel, then in the windows start menu, select run and do excel.exe /regserver and click OK. This will reregister Excel's default settings. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "jjuan" wrote: im using office 2000 sp3. when i try to open an excel file by double click the file or right click the file then Open suddenly the excel open but no workbook open.but when i open the file through the file menu of excel or draging the file in excel, the file open. what is happened to my excel? please help |
