Corrupted Excel File

[Guest]

I suddenly find myself with an important file that is corrupted.

1) Is there a way to recover it?

2) Is there a way to back up the date of the computer to a time before the
file was corrupted?

You may get it open with the free program OpenOffice which reportedly does
wondrous things with corrupt Excel files.

http://www.openoffice.org, a 60-65 meg download or a CD

Or just open your backup copy of the file..............you do have a backup of
an "important" file, right?

You cannot back up the date on your computer to before the file became corrupt.
