Default need to convert excel 97 doc to windows xp 2002 home edition

I am confused on how to convert and existing document that was created in
excel (the 1997 version) into excel (the windows xp 2002 home edition). I
downloaded an online converter and it said it should recognize the document
now, but it's still just a bunch of numbers and symbols. Please help~

You should be able to open the .xls file produced by XL97 directly
into XL2002. From there, save the file and it will then be in the
later format. You shouldn't need a converter.

Hope this helps.
