A colleague is having a problem opening a particular excel file. She gets
the following error message:

Excel.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will need
to restart the program. An error log is being created.

It is only happening with this file and she is able to open all other excel
files successfully.

Any ides as to why this is happening and more importantly is there a way
that we can recover the file?

This file has acquired some sort of corruption. Have a look at this page for
more information:
