Vista and XP
 

Floss

the version of the operating system is not relevant. What versions of Excel
have you?

If the machine was OEM with Vista, It may also have Office 2007 on it. If
this is the case you have two options

1) The Office 2007 machine can save the Excel files as 97-2003 version
2) You can load the Office 2007 File compatibility pack on your machine to
read Excel 2007 files from the other machine

You can download 2 here
