When I get an attached Excel file and double click on the
icon, I get the option box to either open or save. If I
try to open the file, Excel opens up but the file will
not. The message I get is that the system "can't find
the file". If I save it to the hard drive, I can then go
open it. HELP! I would much rather open the file to see
whether it is worth saving.

Thanks if you can help me on this.

In Excel, go to Tools Options General and uncheck Ignore other applications
