is this message is providing by excle to avoid external threat.

Most likely the reason Excel cannot open the file is just what it said:

The file is not in a recognizable format

It's either a corrupted Excel file, a version it cannot read (i.e., Excel
2007) or not an Excel file at all despite its name.

| In my case i am getting excle filr from SAP in my out look mail box
directly.
| when i am trying to open the file i am getting below message
|
| The file is not in a recognizable format
|
| . If you know the file is from another program which is incompatible with
| Microsoft excel click cancel, then open this file in its original
| application. If you want to open the file later in Microsoft excel. Save
it
| in a format that is compatible, such as text format.
| . If you suspect the file is damaged, click help for more information
about
| solving the problem.
| . If you still want to see what text is contained in the file, click OK.
| Then click finish in the text import wizard
|
| so i just want to confirm . is this message is providing by excle to avoid
| external threat.
