When opening an existing workbook, Excel opens but not the workbo.

[llhughes]

I have recently upgraded to Excel XP and when I open an existing workbook,
Excel opens but the workbook does not, I have to go to file-open-workbook
name and then the workbook opens. Any suggestions why it will not open when
directly clicked on.

Hi, llhughes. In Excel, click on Tools | Options | General | uncheck the
"Ignore other applications" box | OK.
