Default Can I edit/print an excel file without excel?

Jean D,

You could buy Office 97 thru Ebay pretty cheap.

You could download the free OpenOffice suite.
It will open and let you modify an Excel file.
Get it here (it is a very large file)...
http://www.openoffice.org/

You could send/take the file to someone who has Excel.

My boss sent me an Excel invoice form to fill out, but I don't have
Excel. I've downloaded the Excel viewer, so I can print it, but I'd like to
type in my name, address, and a few other items so that I don't have to write
these in every time.
My boss says they can't send it as anything but an Excel file. Is there any
way that I could save this file in another format so that I could type in
some information?
I've considered ordering the trial version of Office -- but this seems like
a lot of trouble just for one page.

Any suggestions, anyone? Jean D.
