Marking incomplete pending more info. Can you move files from your hard drive onto you USB flash using Dolphin/Konquerer? If you don't have write permission on the USB flash, then it's possible for this behavior. I presume your USB drive is formatted as FAT or FAT32?, not sure how WINE handles non-FAT filesystems.

This is definitely an edge case--using MS Office through WINE. Can you open the file with Open Office from the USB disk?

At least you have a work-around--write the file to local disk then open it in Excel. Could be a WINE issue with handling of USB disks. Could be an MS Office/WINE issue with file handling.
