"Blocked" file

Hi,

We receive the attached file from a client. If you look at the properties of the file, it shows that it is “Blocked”. There is a “Unblock” button next to it which will unblock it. If you open it in Excel, at the top of the window it will say “This file originated from an Internet location and might be unsafe. Click for more details.” If you do a File…SaveAs in Excel, it will clear the “Blocked” status. If I try to open the file using Aspose, I get a “Index was outside the bounds of the array.” exception. The code used is

LoadOptions loadOption = new LoadOptions(LoadFormat.Xlsx);
workbook = new Aspose.Cells.Workbook(this.FilePath, loadOption);

Is this normal behavior? This is the first time I have ever seen a “Blocked” file. I have attached the file but I don’t know if it will retain the Blocked attribute. I also attached a screenshot of the Properties window.

Hi,

Thanks for your posting and using Aspose.Cells.

We have looked into this issue further and found, blocked is the normal behavior.

Please create any excel file using Microsoft Excel and upload it on internet and then download it again and you will see, it is blocked and when you will open it, it will show “virus or unsafe” warning.
