Developer Provided Description - "Since I seem to spend half my (official) working time uncorrupting files, here's resource post on recovery of corrupted files. I've checked out all the links referred to. Additional comments and suggested additions are welcome. Some of the most frantic and desperate posts come for this and they are frequently in tears of happiness when they get a solution.

These points cover corrupted files. Don't confuse these with problems with slow opening, processing or closing of Excel or with Excel crashing out with a particular file. They are usually different issues. Here we cover a case where Excel is normally singing sweetly but with one file we get all sorts of rude messages and just can't open it."

Comment - Similar to my steps.

Developer Provided Description - "A friend once sent me a mail which had the following signature: "Millions of years ago a meteor crashed into earth and destroyed all dinosaur life. So keep saving your work. You never know when it might hit next!"

It might seem a silly humorous statement but ask anyone who has lost work because of the computer hanging up on him/her. 'Save your work every once in a while' is an oft repeated phrase. However if you are one of those brave souls who believe in saving only at the end of the job then you are in deep trouble when Word crashes/hangs. Yet, you may be able to recover it or at least some part of it."

Comment - I think this is turned on by default in at least Excel 2002 and 2003.
