EXCEL 2003 IS NOT FINDING MY EXCEL 2000 FILES FROM A CD

[jrm-1935]

My new Excel 2003 program is not reading or finding old Excel 2000 files that
I have on a CD.
What do I need to do?
Thanks, jrm

What IS occurring? Error message?

When I try to go to the folder containing the Excel 2000 files the message is:
"Folder isn't available" "The folder may be located in an unavaible
location, protected with a password, or the filename contains a / or \."
I have no trouble with my computer with Excel 2000.
Thanks, jrm

Try copying the folders over to the hard drive. Doesn't sound like an Excel
issue to me, sounds like a CD problem.
