Hi All
I've been using Vista Ultimate for a while, now Windows 7 7100(Which
is awesome).
In both operating systems, Excel thumbnails have never worked, only
for the other office 2007 applications.
Anyone know why this is?

Regards
Bobby
 
It seems that with some of my excel files, thumbnails work and with others
they don't. I don't know why.
 
I did some further research and what you need to to is open the excel
document and select the Office button in the upper left and then select
Prepare, then properties. This will open a tool bar above the excel document.
Select the Document Properties pulldown menu and select advanced properties.
Under the summary tab, check the box at the bottom that says "Save thumb
nails for all excel documents". That will create the thumbnail when you save
the excel document. Unfortunately you must open each document and just resave
it to get the thmubnail.

This still doesn't seem to work for some reason...
 
Sorry for the long delay in response but I didn't get an E-mail alert for
some reasno.
I have tried this on two Vista systems and it worked each time. I'm not sure
what is going on for you if you set Save thumb nails for all Excel documents.
