I have a worbook that open fine in Excel 2000. When opened in Excel 2003,
it pops up a dialog with this error message:
"File error. Some number formats may have been lost!"
I can't seem to find any formats that are gone. But the book has many, many
sheets and is complicated, so I am not sure that the book is still OK. I
am reluctant to simply click OK and save the file. I am afraid this may be
a symptom of other problems. Before exploring the other problems, I wanted
to learn more about the lost formats problem.
Questions:
Are there formats that are legal in Excel 2000, but illegal in Excel 2003?
Is the maximum number of custom formats less in 2003 than in 2000?
Is there a way to write a macro to list all formats employed (or available)
in a Workbook?
