hello-I have never used excel before and someone has
attatched an excel sheet that I need to fill out and send
back to them through my email. When I try to open the
attatchment I get a message saying cannot open. you need
to know the file that created it. I dont know how to open
it or find what program created it or whatever. Pleae
tell me what I need to do?? Do I need to download
something or what. ALL HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
 
If you've never used Excel and your email does not know what program is
associated with the Excel file you have been sent, the chances are that you
don't have Excel installed.

If that's the case, and you want to be able to open and update the
spreadsheet then you'll need to get a copy of Excel.

Regards

There is a free version of a spreadsheet program that may be compatible enough
for you to open, make your changes and save.

You can get a copy here: http://www.openoffice.org

It's quite a large download (60-65 meg) or you could order a CD.
