It's normally best to copy the file from any detachable media (such as DVD)
onto your hard disk, then open it from there.

"...when you look at it on the disk it says ,977bytes..."
Can you verify the size of the file please? 977 bytes is more like the size
of a shortcut file, not of an Excel file. Could it be that you saved a
shortcut to the file and not the file itself? What is the name of the file
you are examining?

And why not open Excel and browse directly to the file and open it instead
of trying to open it through a shortcut?
