Excel adds a 1 to the end of a filename

I have EXCEL 2003 SP3.

Whenever I open an existing Excel spreadsheet, Excel automatically adds a 1
to the end. Then when I do a simple "save" it defaults back to "my
documents" instead of the original loacation of the file. Then I have to
navigate back to the original location pick the original file name and then,
of course, confirm that I want to over write it. This has got to be a simple
option that I am missing somewhere. HELP!!!

Being in the right place, at the right time would certainly be a plus.

But maybe we can help anyway. Is it a 1 or a :1? If the latter that means
that your file has more than one window. The other(s) may be hidden of off
screen. Look in the window menu to find them, and/or do a windows-arrange
and select windows of active document. If you don't want these multiple
windows, simply close them by clicking the X in the window corner.
