Dawn

I am unable to open my excel files by double clicking - I have to open them
by opening excel first. I tried to reinstall MS Office 3 times -each time
the reinstallation was unsuccesful. Help.

In Excel, click on Tools | Options | General | uncheck the
"Ignore other applications" box | OK.

If the above doesn't help, then close Excel and re-register Excel
in Windows by clicking on Start | Run | Open: excel /unregserver
| OK | Open: excel /regserver | OK.
