Risking sounding over simplistic but just to be clear. In order to
find the properties of something , you have to be on the file itself
as in My Documents or My Computer in Windows Explorer , or have the
file open. You can find the properties of anything but you have to be
on or in something. Where is it you are trying to find the
properties. 99 percent of computer users don't fiddle in there for
just general usage, so maybe there's another way to do what ever it
is you are trying to accomplish?
Can you tell me what screen you are in when you try to access the
properties? Some sort of activity like the sample below would be helpful.
1. I open My Documents
2. I highlight an xls file by arrowing to it
3. I press the Apps key and arrow to properties
4. And the option is grayed out.
Or
In My Documents where I keep my XLS files, I've tried opening 8
different file properties and all of those file extensions have
grayed out or unavailable properties. I noticed this problem a month
ago after my grand kid was messing around in my file association
options and I told him to get away from my computer *smile*.
Some sort of additional info of where you are at in the computer is
needed to help you out.
If you just open up Excel without any spreadsheet and go under the
File menu to Properties it will be grayed out yes.

My "Properties", and all saved files, under Excel, are marked as
"unavailability".
I'm using Microsoft Office 2003, similar to 2000, and windows SP.
How do I make all these files, and the "Properties" function available?
