RE: google doc. I'm sharing a spreadsheet with someone and she can't access past item 1, why?

Question

She sees an error message at the lower left of the screen and cannot scroll down to access any items past item 1. We have shared many other spreadsheets exactly like this with no problems. I shared it with myself (at another email) and it worked fine. She saw an error message but I didn't. Google doesn't seem to answer - any brilliant ideas out there.

Thanks in advance if you do.:)

Answer 1

Have you possibly used Excel 2007 and just done a Save?  If you don't save-as a 97 to 2003 file and you friend doesn't have 2007 he/she won't be able to open it.

I am not sure if you are attaching a file to an email or using some kind of Google process.  If you are attaching the file try having your friend save the file (maybe to the desktop) then first open Excel the click file/open and choose that file.  For some reason on my older Dell running XP if I try to open some xls files by double clicking the filename it won't go and I get an error.  If I open Excel as above it works fine.
