MS Excel File Generated from ReportCaster Not Opening
We have users that have upgraded to MS Office 2007 and the .xls files that we distribute to them are not opening. Has anyone encountered this problem? Any solutions?

Thanks...

The thread is here.

dhagen's suggestion in that thread seems to work, but requires a registry edit.
