not very easily

Oliver:

Except for what has been listed on the main page for MrExcel, there is not much you can do.

You can try to use defrag to fix the file or use some other file repair tool. If you are using WinNT, you can buy Executive Software's "DiskKeeper."

You can try copying the file to another location and then trying to open that copy. Sometimes (seldom) that works.

If you are on a network whose administrator has setup an auto-backup of PC's, you can ask your admin if there is a copy of the file.

That's pretty much it.
