Excel 2007 won't open Excel 2003
 

I'm having an odd problem with my Excel 2007. Excel 2007 will not open my
Excel 2003 files by double clicking on them. I tried to associate the Excel
2003 with Excel 2007, but I think I got the wrong Excel file associated, and
now it won't unassociate. Excel 2007 will open the Excel 2003 files, only if
I run Excel 2007 then "Open" the Excel 2003 file through Excel 2007. The
files seem OK.

I'm running Vista with Office 2007. I have the following 2 issues:
1) Excel 2007 will not associate with Excel 2003 Files (Open With does not
work)?
2) How do I remove something from the associate list?

Excel 2007 won't open Excel 2003
 

You have to open Excel first then File Open. Older files "need" certain
information from the application before they will work.
