Default 2007: How to show ribbon in XLS sheets opened with Internet Explor

Our company has the Browse in Same Window flag on for the XLS and DOC file
types. This is needed for these documents to work inside of our own
application. When opening a Word Doc it shows the ribbon within IE and you
can make all your changes and stuff. But when you open and Excel Sheet within
IE, it only shows the spreadsheet and the formula bar. There is no ribbon. If
you look closely I was able to see the ribbon show for a split second but
then dissapear. Also, if you try and do Alt+F to get the ribbon, IE takes it
over, so that alternative is out. Is there a way to enable the ribbon for
files viewed in IE? The reason it's a problem is that the user wants to do
the Sort command, and there is no shortcut key for the Sort button. We have a
workaround but wondering if it's possible to implement this. My developer who
works on the application is also looking into it on the programming side.
