The file is right there!

When clicking directly on my file of choice, I get the error message that my
file can not be found. Why does this happen and how can I resolve the issue.

Where is your "file of choice" when you click on it? Is it in a recent
documents list? Or is it a shortcut to your file? If so, those won't
reflect changes if a file is moved or deleted.

Try finding your file in Windows Explorer, or select FILE-->OPEN, then
Browse to find your file.

HTH,

If you are double-clicking an XLS filename and it is not opening
successfully, make sure that in Excel > Tools > Options > General
"Ignore other applications" is not checked.
