Title: Upgraded computer software
Post by: Getback on July 26, 2011, 01:14:42 PM

Just upgraded from windows xp to windows 7 and from excel 2003 to excel 2010. Now that's a long haul. Thank goodness for Windows Easy Transfer.

I have a small issue though. When I open excel 2010 my 2003 documents don't appear. They will if I select all files but that is quite a list when you include Word, Access, and what have you. Any way to get those to appear as excel 2010 files?

Most likely because excel 2010 is looking for the new .xlsx format not 2003's .xls. Change the drop down next to the file name in the open dialog to "all excel files"
