Hi Jody,

Bill Lam and I were able to retrieve it OK. Maybe you are missing the 
24524.xls off the end (that's where the line wrapped in my e-mail client).

See my previous message. Bill replied [presumably inadvertently] in 
private e-mail that he agreed with me that the problem seemed to be that 
the workbook is so small that it fits into the SSCS aka Ministream aka 
smalldata storage.
