excel 2003 saved file will not open without a blank workbook open
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? |

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. Bob wrote: Excel saved files will not open from desktop or as received attachments without a blank workbbok open first.
