I don't understand why spreadsheets I receive open in viewer. The only way I get them I excel is if I open excel then open the desired file. Double clicking on the file in outlook or after saving the file will open in the viewer. This is frustrating. I seem to have windows xp and the 2007 office suite. Thanks for help! |

Do you need the viewer? If not, uninstall it. You can also associate .XLS, .XLSX etc. extensions with Excel, by following the steps detailed here: How to change or select which program starts when you double-click a file in Windows XP Other helpful resources: Windows XP: To associate a file with a program Windows XP: To associate a file name extension with a file type |
