[comp.sys.mac] Excel 2.2 upgraded from 1.04

I recently upgraded Excel 1.04 to 2.2.  The problem that I have is
that none of my old documents show up with the Excel Icon.  They are
now the icon with the blank page.  All were created by opening the
file, then saving the new version on top of the old.  I even tried
opening one of the files and then saving it out under a different
name. 

Any ideas?

Thanks.

You might try rebuilding the desktop. This is sometimes needed when
applications are added to get the icon conneted to the application.
When starting up the Mac just hold the OPTION and COMMAND key down.
Click on the OK button when asked.

Hope this helps.
