MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / September 2009update data by e-mail??
Please bear with me as I am new and dumber than a pocket full of rocks when it comes to this kinda of stuff, but learning. This is the Scenario: The company I work for also has M/S office I created a work sheet at work & home named DOGS. I do most of my work at home... can I e-mail the company and would they be able to save and updated to dogs worksheet? one other quick question: I have 2003 office Students and Teachers Edition would I be able to to restore to lets say M/S works 6-9. I am aware that not all the functions would work in works but I assume a majority of them would? Is there a convert that would bring works up to the level of Microsoft Office 2003 Version Students and Teachers Edition. Thanks for taking time read and possible help.

I'd keep clear of Works, the files are not compatible. A far better option would be to use Open Office. This can read xls files and, I think that files can be sdaved in xls format. Open Office is a free utility and can be downloaed from www.openoffice.org HTH Peter Atherton > Please bear with me as I am new and dumber than a pocket full of rocks when > it comes to this kinda of stuff, but learning.
