software

Hi everybody,

On one computer I can save an excel file that would show for example
quot;Book1quot;, Then on another computer if I try to save a file it saves it
as quot;Book1.xlsquot;, I notice that all the files have this xls attachment on
the end on one computer but not on the other. Why is it doing this and
can it be corrected. The only way I can rename a file on this computer
is by leaving the .xls there?

Thanks for any help

View this thread: www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=493598There is a Windows setting that controls how file names are
displayed. Open a folder window and choose Tools then Folder
options. In the View tab, uncheck quot;Hide extensions for known file
typesquot;.--
