Excel 2000 & .xlsx
The best thing to do is have the sender save as .xls and then send. Don't know if the converter works with 2000 -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "dicentra4" wrote in message ...

Unfortunately I sent it to myself from another computer (out of town) & no longer have access to the spreadsheet (nor does anyone else). Should I upgrade Excel? If so, to what? How do I do this? I want to keep Windows XP. |

If it's even remotely connected to business, upgrade; buy Excel 2007 and install it onto your WinXP system. (If Word2007 and Powerpoint2007 comes with it, upgrade Word and Powerpoint too) There are ways of downgrading the file; by SaveAs and by a file converter. But imo it's better to have Excel2007.
