03' (+ compatibility pack) users viewing 07

[jasonr17]

Is there any way to allow 03' users the ability to view an 07' spreadsheet
out to column QC? The formatting of the file I created in 07 makes it
necessary to take advantage of these columns.

Compatibility allows 03 users to open/manipulate and save, but i'm guessing
it will not get them out to the far reaches of columns.???

True, the compatibility pack will not allow the additional columns to be
viewed. Excel '03 is still limited to the 256 column limit.

If all your users need to do is "view" the '07 workbook, then you could try
to download/install the free Excel 2007 Viewer.
