| | Help Locating Microsoft Works Spreadsheet I have a microsoft works spreadsheet that I've used for a long time but seems to have been corrupted. When I try to open it I get a message "cannot find the document ......xlr check the drive and directory" When I then do a search in the C drive I can find the document but when I try to open it I get a message "windows is searching for ....xlr. To locate it yourself click browse" this message then changes to "the item that ......xlr that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved so this shortcut will no longer work properly" When I try to manually locate it from the shortcut it states I still can't find it. Any help would be much appreciated. |
