What did you find on C drive? Excel.exe? Windows wouldn't ask which program created it. An *.xls file and you are trying to open it? Sounds like you don't have Excel installed on your computer. Post back with more detail on what you found and what you wish to do with that "found" item. If you just want to view and/or print an Excel file(*.xls) you can download a free Viewer from MS. Viewer for Excel 97/2000 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=EN Watch for word-wrap...all one line. Viewer for Excel 2002 and 2003 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en Note: the latest version of the viewer is said to replace previous versions so assume it works on all.

If this is a work WorkStation are you sure it not a remoe install, in which case have a word withteh IT boys to activate Excel. If a local install the file must be excel.exe you need to target.
