How do I make XLS files open in Excel 2003 instead of Excel 2007?
 

Hi

One way
You can to change the Windows setting for File Association.
For Vista, it is in Control PanelDefault programsSet
associations.xlsChoose the version of Excel you want.

You would need to do the same thing for .xla , 'xlb etc.

Like when you double click on them in windows explorer?

You could reregister excel.
close excel (all instances)

windows start button|Run
type:
"C:\your path to excel 2003\excel.exe" /unregserver
and hit enter.

Then in the Run dialog:
"C:\your path to excel 2003\excel.exe" /regserver

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

And the last version of excel installed (or reregistered) will become the
default.
