Probably the file was partially overwritten. What are you after? A working file or the data contained within? If there is any data to be had you would be able to see it if you open the file in notepad. |

I know one solution regarding the repairing the file To manually repair a file 1. On the File menu, click Open. 2. In the Open dialog box, select the file you want to open, and click the arrow next to the Open button. 3. Click Open and Repair, and then choose which method you want to use to recover your workbook. |

craig6928 remember that all office applications create a backup file while your working on the main file i suggest to look @ the temp folder of the user example: MS-word files temp names starts with ~Wxxxx just rename it to .doc and thats it i don`t remember the excel temp name chk it about fixing your file try to use the Kernel for Excel Recovery i tried it the best |
