ToolsOptionsGeneral uncheck "Ignore other Applications" Exit Excel and try again. If this doesn't work try to re-register Excel Close Excel first and On the Windows Taskbar 1) StartRun "excel.exe /unregserver"(no quotes)OK. 2) StartRun "excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK. See the space between exe and /regserver You might have to designate a full path to excel.exe. In that case StartRun "C:\yourpath\excel.exe /regserver"(no quotes)OK. One more thing to try if any of the above brings no joy......... Go to StartSettingsFolderOptionsFile Types. Scroll down to MS Excel Worksheet. Then if running Win98 OS Edit select "Open" and Edit. If using WinXP OS you would scroll down to .XLS then "Advanced"OpenEdit. In Command line the path should be similar to this.... "C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\EXCEL.EXE" /e (delete the <sp/e if you want Book1 to open. You must have the double quotes. Below have "use DDE" checked and this in the DDE message box....[open("%1")] Application should read "Excel"(no quotes) Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Sat, 21 May 2005 10:31:02 -0700, "snows_24" wrote: whentrying to open the existing excel file, it pulls up blank document. i have to open the required file, by going to file-open and then document.
