Excel 2000 to Excel 2003
Hi: A friend is sending me a spreadsheet with formulas and macros created in Excel running on Windows 2000. I am running Windows XP with Excel 2003. Whenever I try to open his file, I am get two pop ups asking whether or not to disable macros. Regardles of how I answer, the spreadsheet eventually opens, but EXCEL says that the file was corrup and that it had to repair the file. The repaired file is non-functional because all the macros have been scripted. If I send the file back to the originator, he says it works fine. The file was sent to another person with Windows XP and EXCEL 2003 and he has the same problem. I tried the file at home with Windows XP and EXCEL and again the same problem. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Thanks

I'd ask the originator send the original file once more. If that didn't work, I'd ask that the file be zipped and then sent.

Hi Dave: That didn't help we have zipped, CD, etc. The problem still persist. Any ideas on what could be the problem. Also, I made a mistake in the name. The problem is between EXCEL 97 on a Window 2000 machine and EXCEL 2003 on a XP machine.

Your copy of xl2003 should be able to open a file created with xl97 with no problems. My next guess is that the file is corrupted some how. But the only fix I know for that is to recreate the workbook. And that's could be a big job. Mike wrote: > > Hi Dave: > That didn't help we have zipped, CD, etc. The problem still persist.

Hi: Yes, corruption seems to be the reason. My guess now is that the orginator's computer system has some kind of low level conversion taking place. Ie Linux to Intel, etc. Are you aware of any issues involving the setup of each operating system to communicate with each other, ie. bitwise swapping, etc.?

I don't know anything about that kind of stuff. But both of you have to be running some kind of version of Windows, right? Maybe you could ask him to create another workbook (just a test workbook) and send it to you. See if that works. Mike wrote: > > Hi: > Yes, corruption seems to be the reason.

Thanks, will give that a try, but I think they are writing it off as something they can't do, at least with this workbook.

EXCEL TROUBLESHOOTING #2
I have an excel file (2000 format), that after I made a number of changes is causing me problems when I re-open the file. Windows task manager goes to 100% CPU activity, and i cant do anything within the excel file. However, if I set recalculation to manual before I open the file, all seems fine. Obvioulsy I have a problem. But how do i find that problem ? Thanks in advance. I have had some experience running large spreadsheets lately. Above a certain size, the recalculation time seems to climb very fast. While Excel is recalculating, you can't do anything anyway. Best in my v...

Excel ignores boot-time regional settings when interpreting a date
I have a third party DDE app that exports dates as strings, correctly using the short date format in the regional and language settings, which, in my case is MM/DD/YYYY (reset at every boot). Unfortunately excel insists in interpreting that date as DD/MM/YYYY [Application.International(xlDateOrder)=1, it should be 0], disregarding my regional settings. The result is that all the dates are wrong or #VALUES! If this is not wierd enough, listen to this: it only happens after I reboot (when the date format is reset to MM/DD/YYYY). If subsequently I change the short date format in the regional se...
