When I purchased my Dell XPS400 ,it came bundled with many software applications ,and in a seperate box I recieved a MS Works Suite 2006 ! My ? is I recieved an email with a documnet attached, its my sons football roster and its in .xls format. My ? is can I open this file using the Works Suite ,this format requires excell ,however since its a documnet I was hoping there would be some format in the work's suite I could use to open and print this information ? Any help or links to a freeware app for opening a .xls style documnet would be greatly appreciated !
Thank You ,Gumba

Microsoft offers a free Excel file viewer, here:

Give it a try. Read down a bit for a compatibility pack for later version of Excel.

Hi europa303,
I just wanted to let you know that I followed your instructions and the link you provided . I downloaded the MS Excel Viewer 2003 and then I was easily able to open the file I needed from my sons footbal team ! Iam going to keep this application on my PC and want to thank you for sharing it with me !
Take Care ,Nick
