Default Emailing a sheet to someone that doesnt have excel

ok i use automation from word to generate an excel doc. i make it so that the
data will fit just nicely on one page, and if there needs to be more than
one, everything is arranged perfectly to fit. and it prints out great, the
problem i have is that i need to be able to email this to someone that doesnt
have excel. they need to be able to print out exactly what i can print out,
but without using excel...

there are a few things i could try i think, from dumping the data into an
email in outlook, to making a wordpad .doc file (it cant be a .txt file since
it needs to have formatting), or even saving the excel sheet as a webpage.
the webpage idea was the closest so far, except that when printed it doesnt
fit on one page, and the header is missing.

maybe someone knows of a better solution?
much thanks
