Hi Im trying to help a user here with a problem in excel 2003.
He is getting error messages when trying to open excel files telling
him the security level is too high etc. I tried
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/291206/EN-US on his computer but no
dice. He is able to open the documents but data in them are
missing...any ideas?
 
Do you have access to xl97, xl2k, or xl2002?

Maybe you could try opening the workbook in one of them to see if there really
is any data there?

You may want to try OpenOffice. If the file is corrupted, OpenOffice may be
able to open it.

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

(And if the file is corrupted and is really important, there are commercial
recovery services. I've never used it, but you might want to check into:
