Problems with Mappoint using xcel 2007

I just installed Office 2007 and now I cannot import any data from Excel 2007. I have tried saving files in Excel 2003 format but it still does not work! Any help or suggestions? Thanks!!

Re: Problems with Mappoint using xcel 2007

Saving as Excel 2003 should fix it.
MapPoint 2006 predates Excel 2007 - so it doesn't know about the Office 2007 XML-based formats.

What is the error that you are seeing?

Re: Problems with Mappoint using xcel 2007

Richard,
Thanks, I tried saving in the old excel format then it will find it. But then when I export with PushPin Tool, I save the spreadsheet in old excel format then go to import back into a map it states that it cannot locate the file. But Office 2007 has many other issues besides this!! I think I will just re-install Office 2003 and search for solutions to their problems before I try to use '07 again. Thanks again for the help.

Re: Problems with Mappoint using xcel 2007

Pushpin Tool will be using the version of Office/Excel that you have installed. So it is probably creating an Excel 2007 file - Pushpin Tool predates Excel 2007 by a few years!

Thanks Richard!

Any idea if or when there will be new versions of MapPoint & PushPin Tools. I can do without Office 2007; but I can't do without MapPoint & PushPin Tools
