Hello! I'm hoping the experts here can help me with this quirky issue. I
have a user who when she double clicks on a spreadsheet from her My Documents
folder or from an email or such, Excel 2007 opens yet will not open the
document itself. If you click around long enough it usually will open, or if
you go to the open dialog you can open it that way. Here's what I have tried
- under Excel Options/Advanced I've tried both unchecking and checking the
option to ignore other applications that use DDE with no luck.
Also have tried modifying how the sheets open using this - Application to
perform action:
At the end of the line after /e append a space character followed by "%1"
(including the quotes)
DDE Application Not Running:
Insert new text: [rem see command line] (including the brackets)

Oddly enough this seems to work for a little while, then stop working. I
have no other things to try. I've uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck.
That was my last resort tactic. Is there something else I can check? Or am
I doomed to have to redo her machine for this quirky error?
