Jan Karel Pieterse, Excel MVP has in the past offered this explanation. Excel checks the integrity of a file when it opens it. Your file contains a problematic range name (Insert, Name, define), which coincides with built-in range names Excel normally manages itself. In this case, you probably have a (I expect workbook-scoped) name called Print_area. This is one of those reserved range names managed by Excel. Print_area range names normally are worksheet-scoped, which is why this name causes an error message. These may be possible solutions: 1. Open in 2003 and resave with a new name 2. Use Rename in the folder view (windows explorer) 3. When the first time this box comes up you enter a new name with 1 character, it will open. Then you should immediately resave the file. If the second time opening it, put a new name with 2 characters, and so on. If you can't get the file open just keep trying adding 1 character each try until the file actually open. Hope this helps "bhay@nascospg.com" wrote: > I am trying to open an Excel file using version 2007 that we have receive > from a sister company. when i open it i get the below message. > > NAME CONFLICT: Name cannot be the same as built-in name.

How do I view Pivot Table source data file and field names?
I'd like information on how you can view the name/reference for the source data of a Pivot Table. For Example, in MS Access and Cognos Impromptu you can go to SQL view and see where data in a Query is coming from. It's easy to find the source of formulas in Excel, using the Audit Toolbar. I'd like a way to quickly view the file name (whether an Excel file or external source) and field names that were used to create the Pivot Table. chocolate2346 Wrote: > I'd like information on how you can view the name/reference for the > source > data of a Pivot Table.

Create New Sheets and Name Them Based on Values in another sheet
Hey everyone. I have seen several different posts on these different topics, but I need to combine them all. Here is a brief summary of what I need to do. I have a sheet that has a list of ID#'s on it. I have setup a formula to lookup the names associated with the ID #'s. For each set of ID#'s, I have to create a copy of a generic calculation sheet that I have setup to run a set of calculations on. NOTE: This generic sheet has some very detailed lookup functions, as it is looking up detailed sales information, and will be based on the ID#. So, I need to create ...
