Using Windows XP. All of a sudden Excel workbooks will
not open when double-clicking on the file in a file
list. Excel program starts up but the worksheet does not
display/open. From the empty Excel window I can do File,
Open, select file, and left-click Open, and the worksheet
will display/open. All Excel files are affected the same
way.
 
Hi Joe,

In Excel, choose Tools/Options/General from the menu and check if the
Ignore Other Applications checkbox is checked. If so, uncheck it and that
should solve the problem.
