Do you need excel to update the file?????

The free viewer (no changes allowed) from Microsoft:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/officeupdate/CD011347961033.aspx

and the older version if you can't run the one above:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/excel2000/Xlviewer/2000/WIN98/EN-US/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.
