    Open With?

    This problem has been bugging me for a long time. When I want to open an EXCEL file, sometimes it will open on the first click; at other times, it takes me through about 3 steps about why it can't/won't open. Then, I have to start over and click the Open With option. Can anybody explain that to me?

    Can you upload a copy of the spreadsheet? That would help.

    Welcome to the forum! Please take a moment to re-read forum rule #1 and then amend your thread title to something that better explains your problem. Changing your thread title is not optional, which means you must change it. Thanks!

    • Use concise, accurate thread titles.
    • Your post title should describe your problem, not your anticipated solution.
    • Use terms appropriate to a Google search - poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice tell us nothing.
    • Responding to a request to change your thread title by doing so is mandatory.

    To change a title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title.

    No help to be offered, please, until the OP complies with this request.
