One of the files was so badly mangled that it could not be copied, opened (or even deleted!) with any MS program! Overall the tool saved me around a weeks work. Overall a terrific result as the data was the hardest part to restore from the original source.

Where there were possible problems, the tool cut an existing worksheet into extra sheets so you knew where to check for losses - a great idea. However, the tool could not retrieve everything with all the formatting (bold, colours etc) lost along with around half the formulaes (mainly the complicated ones that linked sheets togther).

The Excel repair tool was able to extract all the text data from 2 corrupted Excel files which were open and being saved when I had a PC crash.
