How do I find and reopen an excel file I created earlier?

[Happy Grandma]

I created a spreadsheet in excel about 2 weeks ago. I need to get into this
file to use the spreadsheet I created. But I can't figure out how to open
old files in this version of excel. HELP!

In Excel 2003 (and before) click the File item on the menu and look in the
recent files list; if not there use Open and navigate to the folder and open
it

In Excel 2007 click the Office icon (colourful disk at left of Ribbon) and
so the same

best wishes

The Recently Used file list in 2003 is at the bottom of the File menu, in
2007 it is the list on the right of the file menu when you open the Office
Button.

You can also choose the Window's Start command and choose Recent Items and
see if it is listed.
