[QUOTE="MedStudent, post: 1697334, member: 142538"] I'm receiving an error message stating that "The file or file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file" when I try to open an Excel file that I've opened numerous times in the past. I've tried changing the file extension, both in the file itself and through "Get Info." No luck. I've run Disk Utility. No luck. I've tried changing the name of the file. No luck. When I try to open any other Excel file on my computer, the file opens without problem, although the above error message flashes for a very brief moment. Any suggestions? I have an iMac 3.5 Ghz Intel Core i7 running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5. Excel version is Mac 2011 v14.6.0. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
