      This seems like an easy fix, but apparently I'm doing something wrong. When i try to view a file in the history I get the attached message. Also attached are the viewer settings...

          In the extension list, just put xls  - remove the wildcard ones.

          The viewer path should point to the program folder for exacl, then add the file argument "%1%" after it

           

          This is for example for Excel 2010 on a 32-bit OS:

          %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Office\Office12\excel.exe "%1%"
