Can't Open Excel 2002 File in Excel 2003

luvgreen · 02-15-2005, 10:06 AM

Greetings! I have one user populated file used in Excel 2002. Now that we
have to upgrade to 2003, I am trying to open this file, but I got message of
"Microsoft Office Excel has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are
sorry for the inconvenience." Any ideas why this happen to the file. It is
not just happening to one file, it happens to other users too who are using
this file.
Thanks.

Hi

does the file contain a "map" - although maps were not able to be created in
ver 2002 (i do believe some people managed it anyway) files containing maps
created in ver 2000 were still able to be opened. However, in ver 2003
files containing maps (as per help & ms site) will not be able to be opened.

Cheers

Julie:

Thank you for your answer. I don't have maps in my file. I have lots of
macros though. I deleted all the macros in 2002, and it still won't open in
2003.

Wow, you are in Australia!
Thank you Julie for offering. This is sensative information, so I can't send
that to you. I really appreciate your kind help.
