Name Conflict dialog box

My files won't open. What name can I type in the New name box to open my file? How can I fix it so the Name conflict dialog box does not show up any more?

    Does the message complain about a range named Print_Area? If so, try entering PrintArea (without the underscore) as name.

    Print_Area is a reserved name in recent versions of Excel - it specifies the range of a worksheet that will be printed.
