Problem with some content.

Any information or advice?

Hello,

Causes:

The most probable cause of encountering this error message is corruption of complete Excel file or corruption of one or more object in this file.

Try to open your '.xls' file by making it 'read-only'. (Follow below procedure to make document 'Read-Only'):

- Click on the ‘Office button’ and select ‘save’ for new document or ‘save as’ for previously saved document.
- Now click on the ‘Tools’ and select ‘General Options’
- And finally click on the ‘read-only’ check-box to make document read-only

Open a new and blank '.xls' file and copy everything from the corrupt Excel file to this new file. Save this file and try to open it again.

At times, it is seen that installing the 'Visual Basic' component of MS Office 2010 resolves the error message. Follow the below mentioned steps to do the same:

'Navigate to 'Control Panel >> Programs' -> select Microsoft Office 2010, and then click 'Change >> Add or Remove Programs' -> at the bottom of this list, click the 'plus' sign provided next to Office Shared Features -> click Visual Basic for Applications -> After that, right-click and choose Run from My Computer -> click Continue'.

Reboot your system when this process finishes.

However, it is possible that all the above-mentioned resolutions fail.

In such situations, use of XLSX Repair Kit  is recommended. This utility repairs corrupt MS Excel sheets without modifying its original content and formatting. Therefore, if the above resolutions are unable to do any good to you, then use of Excel recovery software is the best way to overcome data loss.

- Follow below steps to repair corrupt Excel file with epair software:

- Click ‘Select file’ button to select corrupt file. To search corrupt excel file, click on the ‘Search file’ button.

- Click on the ‘Scan’ button to scan selected file.

- Now see the preview of corrupt file from right-panel of the software.

Good luck,

Ben
