MS Excel 2003

Hello,
He worked with the file during the year, everything was fine, today decided to continue the work, he tried to open it, and there was an error: “‘filename.xls’ can not be accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read -only location. Alternatively, the server the document is stored on may not be responding.”

Who knows what the reason, and it is now open a file?

In advance, all thanks.

First off check the size of the file, it may have been corrupted. Also, check the file properties it may be a read-only file.

I dont understand the 2nd last sentence in your post. Please clarify.

If the above doesnt work, try right clicking, properties, somewhere towards the bottom somewhere there may be an button labled "unlock" , click it and then ok. Then try opening it.

I think I remember this being one of the odd things about trying to open downloaded 03 excel sheets.
