I have an important file that suddenly closes as soon as it opens. I have moved the file to another computer and it works Ok. I can open other 123 files on the same computer.
Any thoughts on fixing this?

It's hard to diagnose with so little information, you didn't even say

what version or platform (DOS, Windows, Mac, UNIX, etc).
Are you not getting any error, or are you running this in such a way
that there might be an error, but you can't see it? (e.g. perhaps you
run it in a console window that closes before you read it).
Is the file so big that you might be hitting resource limits? (those
could vary across machines)
If you disable autoexec macros, does the file open? I don't know the
platform, but on DOS it's /Worksheet Global Default Autoexec
What do your autoexec macros do? Does it use add-ins? If that add-in
installation was broken, that would explain why other files work and the
same file works on other machines.
