How to open WORKSHEET file?
The most common problem when using BBEdit Shell Worksheet Format is that a specific WORKSHEET is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open WORKSHEET, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WORKSHEET file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install BBEdit

If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file WORKSHEET with BBEdit. Below you will find a list of applications that support WORKSHEET files.
Programs to open WORKSHEET file
Remember to download programs supporting WORKSHEET files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BBEdit with WORKSHEET files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WORKSHEET file still does not use the BBEdit program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the WORKSHEET file with the BBEdit program.
Step 3. Update BBEdit to the latest version
If, however, after binding BBEdit with BBEdit Shell Worksheet Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Bare Bones Software website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WORKSHEET file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the WORKSHEET file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WORKSHEET or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WORKSHEET files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WORKSHEET files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair WORKSHEET file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Bare Bones Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WORKSHEET files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move WORKSHEET to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
