Why wont the Excel file load when I double click on it?
When I double click an Excel file in Windows the Excel application opens but
the file never actually loads. I just get an empty Excel sitting there. I originally had this problem with Excel Office 2003 on this machine and recently I upgraded to Office 2007 and the problem went away, I could double click an Excel file and the Excel app would open and the file I double clicked would load. Just today the 2007 started doing the same thing that was happening with 2003. Now the 2007 Excel files will not actually load when double clicked! help? By the way WORD and Powerpoint do not have this issue it only Excel. |

Why wont the Excel file load when I double click on it?
This is a known problem in Excel 2007 on some machines
Open Excel first is the only way to avoid this problem -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm "Office Use" <Office wrote in message ...
