    Problem when copying an Excel file


    Hello all,

    I have an Excel 2010 file. When I want to copy or cut it to some elsewhere, that file will not be copied, instead a shortcut of some KBs will be copied! Copying other Excel or else files has no problem. But this one has.
    Any idea on what is wrong with this file please?
    I'm running a Win 7 machine.

    It was itself a shortcut. I don't know where it has come from. So whenever I would copy it, it would copy another shortcut. Its size and the copies were each one about 3 KB.
    I copied the contents of that file into another Excel 2010 file then the shortcut sign vanished and this time the size became 13 KB!
    The problem of copying this way was solved as well. But I don't know what was the region of this problem.
    Thanks.
