PROBLEM:
Today I was working on my previously saved Excel File with few Pivot Tables, Charts and lot of Formulas as my daily routine. After a while, I have clicked the SAVE button, to save the file. But it shows an error message:
"Error was detected while saving (filename). Microsoft Excel may be able to save the file by removing or repairing some features. To make the repairs in a new file, click Continue. To cancel saving the file click Cancel"
REASON:
This is not I've expected. I don't know why it happened. After searching online for solution I've found that, many article said actually why it happens. These are:
* If your excel file contains many pivot table, then it can happens.
* .xlsx file is actually a compressed file, that contains many more files. If a single file corrupted, then error has detected.
SOLUTION:
The solution is very simple.
- Just open a blank excel file
- Click on File | Open | Browse
- Select that .xlsx file that contains error
- Now Click on Tools | Open and Repair...
