The Briefcase feature of Windows helps the user to keep the files updated by automatically synchronizing multiple copies of individual files. You can drag any of the file to it and it also keeps the track of the relationship between the files on two or more than two computers. But while dragging an Excel Workbook to a Briefcase you may encounter the following error message:

“Update Briefcase
'<Filename.xls>' will not be updated because its merge handler cannot be loaded.”

The problem occurs when the file that you are trying to drag into the briefcase opens by default in MS Excel 97 or the file has not been saved in the (.*xls) format or the file is corrupted and is not able to be dragged. The corrupted Excel Workbook always needs an Excel Repair.

Obtain the latest service pack Microsoft Office 97 Service Release 1 (SR-1) and Microsoft Office 97 Service Release 2 (SR-2) as suggested by Microsoft to resolve out the issue. While if these are already installed then you need to remove a registry key:
\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00020820-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} \Roles\Reconciler, that can result into more serious problems of data loss due to Excel file corruption. An improper handling in Registry Editor may cause drastic condition for the user. So always handle them with care.
