Hi Bob,
Thanx for the reply.

When you get Excel 2013 to open a file, you see, you know that Excel 2013 is doing it. When you double-click on an Excel document in Windows, Windows looks to see what app should open it. Sounds like maybe—this is just an hypothesis—that Windows is asking Excel 2010 to open it, and running into a problem.
But while I think I'm good inside Excel, I get kind of vague when I have to figure out how Excel is interacting with Windows. Don't believe my answer until someone else here agrees with me.

I too thought perhaps it was a file association issue. However, there is one thing I may not have mentioned in my first post, that is Excel 2013 does TRY to open (you see the splash screen) but almost immediately you get a mesage saying "Excel is not working etc."
See my next post to CGM3 for more on this file association thing. Thanx again.
