Formatting and data loss when migrating from Excel 2003 to 2007

[Swapnil.D]

I am trying to open an excel file created in Excel 2003 into Excel 2007. I
get the errors listed below and i loose all formating on the text. There have
been instance where i have lost some lines of data from the excel file.

Is there any solution/bug fix for this problem? Attached is a copy of the
error log generated.

Regards
