Options won't open in files on Excel
Hi, I'm trying to hide zero values in excel spread sheet. I've selected files>Options but when I do I get taken back to the same worksheet. Nothing is opening and I can't continue to advanced...
- I had the same problem several people in this thread described. I managed to solve it the following way:
1) Close all open Excel files.
2) Go to `Start` and type `Excel` in the search box.
3) Click on the Excel icon to open the application.
4) When Excel opens and prompts you to select a file, don't open any file (nor create a new one).
5) Go to the bottom left and select `Options`.
6) The `Excel Options` windows will now pop up and you can modify the Excel options.
I hope this helps any other people facing the same issue in the future.

Art_JB thanks! Amazing how useless Microsoft is at providing solutions to its own problems!
microsoftsucks66 It appears that he wants to help but he doesn't have enough time to actually understand the problem...so he probably has a few set responses that he pastes in... so much that he almost seems like a bot. Just sayin'
