Read-Only Mode
 
I sent out an excel attachment and the recipient sedited it and sent it back
to me but now I can only view it in Read-Only Mode. Does this have
soemething to do with the version I'm using? I have Excel 2007 and they are
using 93 and above.

SAVE the file to your drive. Highlight it, Right Click, a box opens Click on
Properties and un-check Read Only.

I would then be able to go back to that email and open the atachment and it would have content that I had changed and saved. I can't save the attachment now in outlook since it is read-only.

It is also possible the other person you send the file to is using Excel 2003
or earlier. If so, they need to go to www.microsoft.com/office and
download the Compatibility Pack. This will solve your problem.
