When opening an excel file, I get the error message filename.xls is not a
valid single web file page. The file came from an e-mail from which I am
able to open it. However, after saving the file to My Documents, I cannot
open it. Does anyone know of a conversion or setting
 
My original intent was to get the file to open even though Excel prevents me.
I found a work around by making a copy of the file and changing the file
extension to .mht. After doing so, it should open in your browser when you
try to open it. From there, I saved it as a .txt file which I could then
import into Excel using the text imort wizard. Depending on how much
formatting the original file had, this shoudl work if it was text and minimal.
