I am trying to open an excel file of type .xxx and I keep getting a
message saying "the file you are trying to open namenamename.xls is in
a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that
the file is not corrupted." Do you want to open the file now?

I have Excel 2010 and I'm trying to find out how to get Excel to NOT
ask me this question every time since I do want to open this file
every time.

Thanks,
Chet
