I saved a file last week, and now when I try to open it,
it give me an "Unable to Read File" error. Does anyone
have any suggestions? It's a very important file and any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 
You may want to try a different version of excel to see if it can open it.
(xl2002+ may work)

And OpenOffice has a better reputation for opening files that earlier versions
of excel couldn't.

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

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