It's hard to diagnose with so little information, you didn't even say what version or platform (DOS, Windows, Mac, UNIX, etc). Are you not getting any error, or are you running this in such a way that there might be an error, but you can't see it? (e.g. perhaps you run it in a console window that closes before you read it). Is the file so big that you might be hitting resource limits? (those could vary across machines) If you disable autoexec macros, does the file open? I don't know the platform, but on DOS it's /Worksheet Global Default Autoexec What do your autoexec macros do? Does it use add-ins? If that add-in installation was broken, that would explain why other files work and the same file works on other machines.
