Excel MS excell File Error, MS Win XP Professional Version 2002

[shailesh_bali]

Hi,

I saved an excel file yesterday in my desktop when I resumed my work I was working on a different excel file but then had to copy some contacts from the excel file I had saved earlier.

On opening the saved excel file it did not open and their was this error -"File Name.xls" cannot be accessed. The file may be read only, or you may be trying to access a read only location. Or the server the document is stored on may not be responding.

It would be great if I can have some help on retrieving this excel file which is crucial for me, thanks!

Sometimes happens when double clicking on a file icon, close and try again, this may be enough.....
otherwise find file on disk where you kept it, click on properties and check it has not been locked.....
other possibility, is that if stored on a server, is that somebody else is using the file.....

Sorry if not very helpful.
