They all have a single sheet with some VB controls but no code, 2 charts and also they have some protected cells.

Trouble is the ones that work work fine and the ones that don't I can't get back into.

I've read a few notes on the web but none with this specific error.

Help!

The way I got back in was to first run the xlscan97.xla then run the virus check add-in from the tools menu. The scan picks up the files it can't read and opens one of them up. It's a bit hit and miss getting the right file open but I found that it's possible by moving them around into directories to change the location the scan picks.

Once you have the file open you can delete the radio buttons or other control if it's not a radio button.

If you need more help on this one your welcome to write me on jlt206@hotmail.com
