Mouser - I thought it very unreasonable to remind you during the holiday period about the fix you are planning which would solve the problem with Excel files, hence the delay.

As you were happy to be reminded if you forgot about his however, it would be great if you could provide something which would enable Excel files to be opened from the shortcut within LaunchBar Commander.

Many thanks again for this great software!

LaunchBar Commander / Re: Excel files don't open

Thanks to Shades for your comments – I am using Excel 2010, but the files I am trying to open are in that same Excel format (xlsx) or version 2003 – 2007 format (xls). As I mentioned, my previous launcher software which pointed to the folders where the files are contained could still open them, so I’m not sure it’s Excel causing the problems.

Thank you very much indeed mouser for looking into this and above all for providing such excellent software. It really is a joy to use.

LaunchBar Commander / Re: Excel files don't open

« on: December 11, 2012, 12:01 PM »

I have recently switched to LaunchBar Commander and it’s by far the best application launcher I have ever used. But I too am having the problem with opening Excel files. I have changed the Trusted settings in Excel as suggested, making the folders where the files are located trusted locations, but I’m still unable to open the Excel files.

The application launcher I previously used (Portable Start Menu) does however allow these files to be opened from within the relevant folder. Surely if it is the Excel security settings which are preventing the opening of Excel files, that would be the case irrespective of the application launcher software in use? Sorry if I’m talking absolute nonsense. I’m not an advanced user and may be missing something completely obvious to more tech savvy users!

Has anyone managed to find a workaround to this problem as yet please?

I really enjoy using LaunchBar Commander and in the scheme of things this is just a minor annoyance which I will live with if no one has a solution.

Sincerest thanks in advance to anyone who can assist. I'm using Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

Hi,
I could thank you - you have made it very easy indeed to configure thanks to the additional help you have built in.
Works great!
I'll keep an eye out on SnapFiles, where I first found it, and if it's updated on there I will definitely be posting a 5 star review.
Thanks again - I'm really grateful.

Hi,
Is there any way that the current date can be added automatically to the folder name?
(I suspect not, but as I'm not a programmer don't know unless I ask).
It's really useful software, even if this cannot be done.
Many thanks.
Roger
