David- We had this identical problem on a PC at our office. Detect and Repair fixed the problem.

I've noticed recently that when I double-click an excel file (e.g. from the dekstop/explorer) Excel opens, but the file does not. However if (from Excel) I do a file>open on the file it opens fine. I'm not sure if this is an office problem, or a file-system (windows 2000) as I've also seen this problem in the past with Photoshop files. Any clues? Cheers, Dave. ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
