File Open: No Preview Available...why please?

[CathyD]

When selecting File Open, and the property choices are [Thumbnails, Icons,
List, Preview, etc.], why does the Preview option state 'No Preview
Available'? Even if the Spreadsheet has been created, named, and saved
already (and is being retrieved) there is no preview available?

By default images are displayed in the preview. If you want to view the
preview for XL files then the files should be saved with the 'Save preview
picture' option turned on? Try with an existing file.
