UXDC File Complications

Troubles Opening UXDC Files

Microsoft Excel Not Present

Double-clicking your UXDC file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open UXDC File". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Excel installed for %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the UXDC file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.

Tip: If you have another software that you know opens UXDC files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Obsolete Version of Microsoft Excel

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Microsoft Excel Data Retrieval Service Connection File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. If you've got the wrong version of Microsoft Excel installed, you'll need to install the correct version. The primary cause of this problem is that your Microsoft Excel Data Retrieval Service Connection File file was created by a different (newer) version of Microsoft Excel than what's installed.

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

Conclusion: The majority of UXDC file opening issues are due to not having the correct Microsoft Excel version installed.
