Re: Excel viewer, 68k?

[Anna Silliman]

AppleWorks can read Excel files, I believe.
That is, AppleWorks 5 can for sure, with built-in
translators. Maybe ClarisWorks 4 could too--I can't remember.

MacLinkPlus is a great program with translators for
a lot of things including Excel, but the version I have
(12) requires PPC. Not sure if earlier versions of this
would help you.

Sorry I'm not more specific, but it might be worth
checking out AppleWorks to see if it does what you need.

Replying to my own mail, heh

Just downloaded the 1.0 demo, and it does seem to be 68k compatible. Might 
be just what you need, though it does cost something.

Well, aside from finding an old copy of Excel, the only thing I could find 
was this:

http://www.icexcel.com/

I can't see on the site whether it's 68k compatible, but the 1.0 version 
talks about being compatible with System 7.1 so it might work.

I'd be worried that older versions of Excel wouldn't support the newer 
versions of Excel files, especially from the Windows side of things.

Excel viewer, 68k?

[Dr A.P. Whichello]

Hi Everyone,

Was/is there an Excel viewer that runs on a 68040? Specifically my wife's
pb520c: she keeps getting the occasional excel file from friends/work/etc
that it would be convenient for her to view on her powerbook rather than
having to be copied to my PC notebook. She doesn't want to edit the things,
just look at and print them. TIA,

Adrian
