I installed WE 7.5 today. The only change I made was to put WE into the sys tray, and I've since put it back like it was. I have a simple spreadsheet that I use for my budget in Excel from Office 2000. Until today it's been working fine. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't read right if the set file needed to be updated or maybe the program needed to be maximized. The problem is that, when I run it, it says Excel "budget.xls" and it sounds like May 1, which is not the system date. There is no spreadsheet there, according to WE. At first I can at least get to the menu bar and menus, but as soon as I try to maximize it, in case it's not already, or Alt-Tab away and back again to be sure I'm on what I thought I was, there is no application open at all. When I do Control-Alt-Delete, there is no application on the list, well that is when WE was in the sys tray, otherwise WinEyes was on the list. I have opened this file several times with my Start menu shortcut and by pressing Enter on the file itself. I have restarted WE and have even rebooted the computer. The setting as far as I read it should boot up with WE running, but I had to start it with Control-Alt-W to get it going.

Anyone have any idea why Excel would be unreadable and unusable and then close as if I'd never opened it? Any help here would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Marilyn
