Default excel viewer

http://www.wvncsd.com this is the web site I went to - on the right
of the web page is a link to open active warrants and home confinement
updates, when I click on that it tries to open the next page, but fails to
because it says I do not have excel viewer. At the bottom of the first page
it gives a free download excel viewer - so I have clicked that and it
downloads the E.V. However when I go back to the main page and click on
active warrant list Microsoft Word pops up promting me to add the 25 case
numbers. I already have Mirosoft Word in my PC, so I went and got my M.W CD
case and added the numbers there, thinking it was trying to reinstall a newer
update, but it said the numbers were invailid. So I cancled the download for
Microsoft Word so I could just view the web site behind it and the web page
went blank and said that I needed E.V to view the page. I think there is
something wrong with my pc. but unsure.

When I went to a web site today it said I needed Excel Viewer to view the web
site, the web site had a free downlaod for Excel Viewer for those who did not
have it. I tried to open the web site read page and it prompted me to
download the excel viewer, so, I clicked on the install. However it took me
to a page where it wanted 25 case numbers, saying it can be found on my CD
case. However I do not have the numbers. I went around another way - through
Microsoft and downloaded the E.V. after downloading it Microsoft informed me
that it was now installed. I went back to the web site and tried to re-open
the page to read it and it said I needed to install the E.V sooooo, I pressed
install and it again prompted me to put in the 25 numbers. I am confused. Is
there a problem with my PC?

Excel Viewer does not come with a product key.

It is a free add-in supplied by Microsoft so those without Excel installed can
open and print Excel files.

Sounds like you are trying to install Excel or MS Office suite from a CD.

Explain in more detail what you are attempting to do.

Product keys cannot be found on a website.
