    Can't open files from folders - Excel only

    My Excel 2007 won't open any .xls/.xlsx/etc. files if I just click on them in a folder. It works fine if I use the office button to access the folder, but if I just click the same file in the folder, I get a blank NEW excel screen and after about five minutes, an error message.

    All other programs (Outlook, Word, PPT) work fine with their files, it's just excel that's picky. Anybody else have this issue, and if so, how did you resolve it?
