Hello,

I've created a file which when re-opened seems to open twice and adds a "1" or "2" at the end of the file name.

I have five data connections in my workbook, I did have hyperlinks but have since removed. Does anyone know why this is happening and why?

I have researched online and some people say it is the file type and I have tried saving as xls and macro-enabled but that hasn't worked.

Thanks in advance
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
It means you have multiple windows open on the same file. Close all but one of them and then save the file - the format is irrelevant.
