Excel 2000 (Win) workbook won't open in Excel 2004 (Mac)

[Chris Craig]

I have a workbook created on Excel 2000 (Win) with a chart and 12 linked
worksheets. When I try to open in Excel 2004 (Mac) a progress window opens
very briefly and disappears without opening the workbook. No diagnostics,
nothing. Is there any way I can diagnose what might be the problem?
