the target cannot handle this type of document

[Shooter]

I have saved an excel file to a floppy from my laptop. When I save the file
to my- documents on another computer the following message apprears: "the
target cannot handle this type of document". Although the message appears the
document does get saved and appears to work fine when opened. The file was
created from a recent version of excel.

Do you know why this message appears? Thanks.

How did you name the file? Microsoft likes filename.ext If you have more
than one period, it gets confused - file.name.ext is looked at like
file.name. It does not recognize name as a viable extension.
