We've come upon this several times. We have a particular file that opens in 97, asking whether we want to enable or disable macros, but when we look under Tools, Macros, there are no listed macros. Most importantly, when we do the same under 2000, the file comes up with error message "An error occurred while loading Sheet 122212212111111..., do you want to continue loading the project?" and when we press YES, we get an error message "Excel.EXE has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created." Then the program closes out and we are unable to open this workbook. Any ideas on what's going on or how we could open this sheet in 2000?

Lock one reference in a formula
Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
