Excel 2003 with Pivot tables/Formatting do not open in excel 2010/windows 7

Question

Hello Developers,

I was using excel 2003 which had Pivot tables/Formatting but no vba code or macro. This file opens normally in excel 2003 but recently i am upgraded to Windows 7 with excel 2010. When i try to open this file in new vesion it doesn't even open and thows error "Microsoft excel has stop working, windows can try to recover your information, close the program"

When repaired file opens it removes all pivot talbes/formatting.

Any suggestion
