Ally:

have you tried opening the file in XL2000 and doing a File>SaveAs and saving in XL97 format?

Mark and Ally:

I'm having the same problem... we have users who are running MS XL97, I'm running XL2000, They are getting the same type of error when they try to open the sheet. I can open it with XL2000, but hey can't. I've tried to (save as) XL97 format, and it doesn't help... Please Help....
