Rob, you mention on this site,

“xlsx and xlsm files are really just zip files in disguise. Rename the file extension, and you can browse the contents.”

Could you please tell me, what do rename the xlsm file extension to in order to browse the contents?

TIA.

However, when I try to use Andy Pope’s tool it doesn’t work. I can’t create a new custom toolbar nor can I edit an existing one that I created using the Custom UI Editor from Microsoft.

Any ideas what might be wrong?

OS NameMicrosoft Windows XP Professional

Thanks in advance for any help
