When I open an excel document nothing comes up. Just a grey background, like
the document is minimized in Excel. I can go to file open and search for it
and open it that way. Any ideas?


is this a file you created??--

If yes, then try:
window|arrange|Tiled
and resize the window the way you like.

If that didn't work...

Sometimes one of these works when you're having trouble with double clicking on
the file in windows explorer:

Tools|Options|General|Ignore other applications (uncheck it)

--- or ---

Close Excel and
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /unregserver
then
Windows Start Button|Run
excel /regserver

The /unregserver amp; /regserver stuff resets the windows registry to excel's
factory defaults.
