MS Excel Viewer

I was having a lunch when my cellphone rang. The caller id displays my mom's number so being a good son I took the call immediately.

Hi mom! How are you?

Mom

I'm OK son. I need help regarding computers. My friend and I are trying to open an attachment with an extension of XLS but we can't open it. What kind of file is it?

Mom, it is an excel file. You need a Microsoft excel to open it.

Mom

I see. But my friend's PC don't have Excel.

No worries. You can download a light weight excel viewer over the internet.

If you need to view an excel but don't have the MS office installed, you can use a free excel viewer (The file size is about 10MB).
