User has an excel spreadsheet created in Excel 2000. The spreadsheet is fairly simple, a listing of meetings with several filters inserted. The user then emailed the spreadsheet to multiple users. A majority of the users opened and viewed the sheet just fine, but a few ran into the same problem. The problem is when the click on the file to open the spreadsheet, Excel opens and it appears to be a totally blank file. Similar to when you open Excel and then click on File, Close, so Excel is still open, but there's no active file. This is what it looks like. However, when I click on Print Preview, the information on the spreadsheet is indeed there. Also, the toolbars are not greyed out, so it's like there is an active sheet, I just cannot see it in normal view. There's no scroll bars on the top or bottom either. It's very strange. At first I thought it was version conflicts, but I have tested the exact same spreadsheet on Excel 97,2000,and XP and it works fine. Just these handful of PCs with Excel 2000 on them cannot view the spreadsheet. Any ideas?
