CRTX File Complications


Common CRTX Opening Problems

Microsoft Excel Isn't There

When trying to open your CRTX file, you get the error "Can't Open CRTX File Type". Customarily, this means that Microsoft Excel is not installed on %%os%%. The typical path of opening your CRTX with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


Tip: When another CRTX application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.


Wrong Version of Microsoft Excel is Installed

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Microsoft Excel installed that's incompatible with your Office 2007 Chart Template File type. You will need to download a newer version of Microsoft Excel if you don't have the right version. This issue mainly occurs when your Office 2007 Chart Template File file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Excel than you have on your PC.


Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of CRTX file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening CRTX files are due to having the wrong version of Microsoft Excel installed.
