Excel File Won't Open

I have a couple of Excel documents (created in Excel 2003 SP3) that won't
open. When I open the file, Excel opens, but the document doesn't appear.
If I try to open the same document, it says it is already opened. I have to
exit out of Excel. I tried opening the same document in Excel 2007 (no SP),
but I get the same result. I then tried opening a file I know works, then
while that file was opened, I opened the one that didn't work. Again, same
result. I opened Excel in safe mode and tried opening the file again.
Nothing. Does anyone have any info to offer?

Figure it out. It appears the document is hidden. You have to unhide it in
order to see it. In 2003, I went up into Window and selected "Unhide". My
document appeared on the list. In 2007, I went up into View and selected
"Unhide".
