Have just changed computer and my os to windows 8 and am using office 2010. I have never had a problem on my windows 7 system opening xls or xlsx files but now I am struggling to open xls files whilst I do not have a problem with xlsx files. When I try to open an xls file I get the message "excel found unreadable content in the file. Do you want to recover the content of the workbook, if you trust the source of the workbook click yes" When I click yes nothing happens and the file wont open.
Has anyone else had a similar problem or can anyone please advise if there is a solution, other than returning to windows 7!.
Thanks
