Dave,
Thanks but, the ignore other options was unchecked and when I went to run
the "excel/unregserver" error came up saying, can not find file name.
Any other suggesstions?

Sometimes one of these works when you're having trouble with double clicking on
the file in windows explorer:

Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

--- or ---

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

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

Maybe one of these will work for you.

Excel saved files will not open from desktop or as received attachments
without a blank workbbok open first. How can this be corrected so that double
clicking will open the intended workbook without opening a blank from start
menu?
