Excel 2001 - Sytem 9 vx. System 10 (MAC)

We recently switched to operating system Mac 0sx Version 10.3.3.
My original spreadsheet runs in classic (System 9.2). Since I switched =
to=20
System 10, strange compressed boxes appear on the spreadsheets. They=20
look like a thin line that is overlapped many times horizontally. They =
can=20
only be deleted by clicking on each one and deleting. Takes 20 minutes =
to=20
delete one set and one set uses up over 80,000 bytes. Each time we open=20
the spreadsheet, it seems strange things appear. One time it also had =
entire=20
cells that were sold colored lines that printed out. But were not set up =
for=20
that. Anyone else having this sort of problem?

I've never seen this - it sounds like a corrupt file, assuming it
happens only in one workbook.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
