OLE Exception
I have an excel sheet with .xlsx extn in my project. when i try to open that file i am getting an error
"OLE Exception Cannot create the in-place editor Reason: This is probably because there is no OLE editor registered against the type of file you were trying to open." When the excel window is openned then i get an error- "Excel cannot open the file <name>" because the file format or file extention is not valid. Verfiy that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file" There is lot of data in that excel sheet. I shouldn't loose the data. can you tell me how to get the file safely? |

I have an excel sheet with .xlsx extn in my project. when i try to open that file i am getting an error When this file was uploaded, was it uploaded as an excel spreadsheet artifact format? Also do you have a mixed environment of people using both Office 2007 and Office 2003? We have seen this error when an Office 2007 artifact was uploaded but then accessed by somebody using Office 2003, and does not have the Office 2007 conversion utility installed, and saves the artifact with 2007 extension but in 2003 format. |

You should be able to download the file from the server (right-click -> download) to try and open it outside of RRC. If it does not open there, then as Robin said, there may be an issue with the Excel client on your workstation. It might also help to know which version of RRC you are using.
