In my opinion, thats impossible,!
Unless you have another program that recognize Excel file format like Excel Viewer, or you can create your own program to read excel file without install Excel application on your computer.! Create using VB6.0, C++ or other program builder. -- Regards, Halim "Jason Zischke" wrote: Hi All I was wondering if there is any way to open xls file without the need of excel on the computer ?

Just some info:
The free viewer (no changes allowed) from Microsoft: http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/of...347961033.aspx and the older version if you can't run the one above: http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...S/xlViewer.exe (One line in your browser) or... Maybe a free spreadsheet program would work: http://www.openoffice.org, a 60-65 meg download or a CD or... Google Docs offers a free online spreadsheet program (and a word processing program) that may be able to open your file. http://docs.google.com Jason Zischke wrote: Hi All I was wondering if there is any way to open xls file without the need of excel on the computer ?
