Understanding PXL Issues

Typical PXL Opening Challenges

NeoOffice is Not Installed

You attempt to load your PXL file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The PXL File Extension". When this happens, it is commonly due to NeoOffice missing in %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the PXL file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.

Tip: Another PXL-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.

NeoOffice Requires Update

In other instances, your Pocket Excel File file version may not be supported by your version of NeoOffice. You will need to download a newer version of NeoOffice if you don't have the right version. Most of the time your Pocket Excel File file was created by a newer NeoOffice than what you have installed.

Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the PXL file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.

Primarily, problems experienced when opening PXL files are due to having the incorrect version of NeoOffice installed on your computer.

More Causes of Problems Opening PXLs

Assuming you have the right NeoOffice version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening PXL files. If you are still having problems opening PXL files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Other contributing causes:
