    AAAAAAGGHH!!! HELP!! We have an excel fie done on a mac here that wont open, it says it is corrupt.
    There is no auto saves and their is no backups.
    I tried opening it in open office but no joy.
    Does anyone know any mac based Office File repair progs that are good/free?
    Any advice would be appreciated as they think i'm the office nerd who can fix this kind of stuff (i'm not, im actually really cool)

    Cheers Folks

    have you tried:

    To manually repair a file

    On the File menu, click Open.
    In the Open dialog box, select the file you want to open, and click the arrow next to the Open button.
    Click Open and Repair, and then choose which method you want to use to recover your workbook.

    and on a personal note, if you ever 'have' to call something 'really cool' it isn't. doubly so if it's yourself. be cool with your inner ubernerd.
