Default when i attach a spreadsheet the recipient cant open it?

Hi Tom,

You have excel 2007 on your PC.
Your friend has an earlier version, probably excel 2003.

Three options
1 - he can upgrade to excel 2007
2 - he can use a compatibility pack
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
3 - you can do save as, and choose the file format excel 2003 (.xls) from
the dropdown.

Hi,
When i send a spreadsheet as an attachment the recipient cannot open the
file. It comes up on my email as "JMoAnnDiary09.xlsx" The recipient tells me
its because of the x at the end. Is this true and how can i send this file to
him so he can open it?

Please help me!

Cheers,
Jack.
