I have installed Office 2000 sp3 and since then get a
message box popup from Excel saying "Unable to read file"
when I try to open a recently created workbook.

The fault is not in the workbook because I can open it in
Excel on another PC.

Also Word cannot open files since the installation of the
SP saying it cannot find the file.

Anyone got any ideas??

Paul.
