Hi,
I've got Excel 5.0 and Excel 2000 on a box with Windows 2000 OS(we are
upgrading from Excel 5 to Excel 2000). I've disable Excel 5.0 by renaming the
Excel executable. Then I'm running "Excel.exe /regserver" to make Excel 2000
default. Everything seems to be fine untill here. However, I've notice that
when I open an excel spread sheet that was created using Excel 5.0, the file
associations for Excel have been changed.
I've re-run "Excel.exe /regserver" and opened the same excel spread sheet to
reproduce the problem, but this time file associations for Excel haven't been
touched. I've noticed that this is happening only first time when I open a
spread sheet that had been created using Excel 5.0. I can't figureout what is
triggering the change in Excel file associations.
Can any one has come across this sort of situation? Am I missing anything in
the process of making Excel 2000 default? Please let me know.
Cheers,
Naveen.
