Still can't open excel 2007 with office 2003

[richor]

I am the administrator, have dowloaded elviewer, compatability packs (e.g.
2007 service pack 2) and file format converter. I still can't open xlsx
files. they are just junk. Any other advice?

If this post helps click Yes

If that doesn't help you may have a corrupted file. Send to my addy below
and I'll take a look.

If you have Excel 2003 and download the Microsoft Compatability Pack to open
a Excel 2007 file, will you be able to see any data beyond the 65??? rows
that were limited in previous versions of excel

You will see only 65536 rows in 2003.
