What´s the extension of the file?

Maybe is an excel file but you´re opening it with the notepad.

I think Sunny is right stating the file is corrupt as I got the same error. I changed the extension to .txt, opened it and it looks like asciii jibberish.

The file is most surely corrupt. I would try exporting again.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for response!

Interesting point here is, this is happening for my PC only... if I logged in other system it works fine. Some thing is wrong with my PC it seems

Any Idea what it could be ?

I would repair Excel or Office from the Control Panel if it also happens with other apps when you export to Excel.

This is happening for only Excel's which all downloaded from Qlikview

So, not only one QVW but many. Then either ask IT to see what could be the difference between yours and your colleague's computer or repair Office from the Control Panel if you have permissions to do it.
