    Post Excel not opening .xlsb document in Office 2016

    Hi All,

    Thank you for taking your time to help me out. I have an excel document on our shared network. It's extension is a .xlsb. For some reason it has stopped opening up and giving an error message.Error message reads " We found a problem with some content in BLAH.xlsb. Do you want us to try to recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click YES". Once I click "YES" it won't open and asks me if the document was moved or renamed. But it wasn't. I tried doing a repair to the document but that did not work. I disabled all interactions in trust settings to allow to open documents from office 2003 and higher. Please not that all documents are on our Windows 2000 server. I have tried changing the macro but nothing worked. If anyone has any suggestions on how to open this document and not lose anything, it will be appreciated. Thank you again for taking your time for reading this.



    Best regards,

    MLV

    Resolved. Duplicated the document. Deleted the old one and renamed the new one to the existing name. Opened with no issue.
