What happens when you try to change them? Perhaps they are protected?
As Harald has pointed out, Excel is part of Microsoft Office, which you
said that you have; if Excel is not on your computer, simply reinstall
Office from CD and choose to install it.

If you don't have MS Office CDs, a small Excel compatible (mostly)
spreadsheet can be downloaded from

Ok, I have files or software rather, that I have saved to my computer. I can
open them, read them, but I cannot change the info on the pages. I think that
I do not have Excel???

Hi Rita

Office XP should, unless deselected in a silly custom install , contain
Excel XP. Which is not only a very capable, but in most instances the most
preferred, piece of software to edit Excel files. Please provide detail on
"can't edit them".

Best wishes Harald

I can only view excel files, can't edit them. I'm unable to contact the
person that originally saved the files that I need to edit. I recently

had

my computer reformatted and now I can't edit my excel files. I have
microsoft office XP. I could only find a excel viewer on the site to
download and that's not working for what I need. Please help me!

My Best,
Rita
