How do I open old Excel Worksheets when XP SP2 installed?

After installing XP SP2 (Service Pack 2), I can no longer open previously
created Excel Worksheets. Newly created Excel Worksheets work fine. The error
message for the olf Worksheets indicates that they are not Excel format.
Should I go back to my "pre SP2" XP????

I'm not going to be much help but want to get one thing straight.

When you say XP SP2 do you mean Windows XP or Office XP(2002)?

There is an SP3 for Office XP(2002) which you should download if you haven't
done so.

On Office download site.

If Windows XP SP2, can't help at all. Too many horror stories floating around
the WinXP newsgroups. I will stick where I am(Win SP1) for now.
