Hello Software Professionals,

Will you please help with the following issue? The excel file that I have
tried to open displays the following message.

This happened after I accidently tried to open this excel file as an access
file. The prompt said that the file already existed and then asked if I want
to overwrite. I chose yes. Then it wouldn't open. It displayed:

This file is not in recognizable format.

Please give me any suggestions that you may have.

Thanks, MC
