How open a .XLS file?

[flyted]

I don't have excel and I need to open a few .xls files. Any quick free downloads? I've searched and only found very few shareware options. I've almost never had a need for this before, don't know why they use .xls. Thanks

Sure, how about Microsoft's free Excel Viewer.

Just download OpenOffice.. it'll open and edit most any Microsoft Office file for 0/300th the cost.

Or (yuck) there's always the Microsoft viewer..
