Once you make the change via the explorer shell, you have to edit the
registry setting to revert it back to the way it was. This is per a MS
article, not just me.
This is the key name you need to go to to remove the "%1"
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Excel.Sheet.8\shell\New\command
By the way, if you didn't use the quotes in the command line you'll get
"file not found errors."

Hi Wavelength1550,
Try this:
'You receive a "File Not Found" error message in Excel when you
open a file by double-clicking the file name'

rcleary,
I did the steps you listed and it has created other, bigger problems
for me. I can't edit the "%1" back out of the command line, it keeps
reappearing no matter what I do to it. Do you know how to reverse
these
steps??
