file format is not valid
I have vista, exel.
When I work on a file and go to save about half the time excel shuts down unexpectedly. The recovery feature saves the file with a file name "filename(version1).xls" The problem is the recovery panel then gives a message "file format is not valid". This renders the recover feature useless. Help

file format is not valid
Your operating system is Vista but which version of Excel do you have?
If using Excel 2007 the recovered file should be *.xlsx, not *.xls I would be very concerned if Excel shut down half the time when I save a workbook. Have you done any trouble-shooting?
