Excel Workbooks do not open from windows explorer
When I try to open a workbook from windows explorer,
Excel opens with the top formating protion, but the sheet dose not open, and all I see is my windows desktop. If I open the worksheet in Excel with File and open the workbooks open fine. Any ideas on what I should do to fix?

Sometimes one of these works:
Close Excel and Windows Start Button|Run excel /unregserver then Windows Start Button|Run excel /regserver The /unregserver & /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's factory defaults. An alternative might be to do: Try Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it) lstumme wrote: When I try to open a workbook from windows explorer, Excel opens with the top formating protion, but the sheet dose not open, and all I see is my windows desktop.
