Microsoft Excel 2007 comes equipped with new results-oriented user interface and has the capacity to accommodate 1 million rows and 16, 000 columns. Besides advantages like rich data visualization, PivotTable views, Excel 2007 lets you share a spreadsheet with the introduction of a new technology called Excel services. By sharing a spreadsheet using Excel 2007 and Excel Services (a feature of MS Office SharePoint Server), you can navigate, sort, filter, input parameters, and interact with the PivotTable views directly on the Web browser. However, at times, you might not be able to load a spreadsheet, published to Excel Services, and receive an error message. This situation hints towards possible corruption in an Excel sheet. To overcome such issues, it becomes essential for you to use the backup copy of the spreadsheet. And, if there is no backup available, then you must opt for a professional Excel repair software.
