I wanted to upload an excel file with one of my threads, but it is refused.
Do I have to zip it first and if so, why?

We currently do allow files with an .xlsx extension to e uploaded. What format was your spreadsheet in?

The extension is .xlsx, but I could not get it uploaded. Will try again and will let you know.

The error message I got is always (I tried again) The filetype you are attempting to upload is not allowed
I tried to post it as a "tutorial" it is just a display in excel of the rather complex hierachy of the DataGridView class.

Please email the file to me at dani@daniwebmail.com and I will try for myself. You shouldn't be getting that error message with an .xlsx file.

P.S. Attaching an image to this post just to make sure attachment uploading hasn't broken.

Bug fixed :)
