    When an Excel file is corrupted, then you can try several methods to recover it:



    Method 1: First of all, you can try to repair the file manually in Excel, as follows:


    • On the File menu, click Open.
    • In the Open dialog box, select the file you want to open, and click the arrow next to the Open button.
    • Click Open and Repair, and then choose which method you want to use to recover your workbook.

    You may find more information about this at:

    Method 2: If method 1 fails, there are still several methods to recover your Excel file manually with Excel, including writing a small VBA macro, as below:

    There may still be some warnings when opening the fixed file in Excel, just let ignore it and Excel will try to open and repair the fixed file.


    And also check out this forum to get the best solution for repairing the file:

    Steve - FYI, the thread is over two years old and the OP has never been back. Given that the only thing you ever seem to do here is post suggestions for recovery of corrupted files, I am surprised you didn't find this one sooner!
