I am attaching an excel file to someone who works on a mac. They say it only comes up as a read only file and cannot open it. What do I change before I send it so that they can open it. Or does the mac person have to do something on their end to open it? confused.
 
This is just a guess, but I've seen some posts that say that sending the message
in Rich text format can confuse the recipients email program (not sure if it
includes Mac's, though).

If you're using RTF, try plain text.

And if that doesn't work, is there a common (pc/mac) version of something like
winzip that can be opened on a Mac--Stuffit!)???

I'm assuming you've sent it more than once already--if you only sent it once,
maybe it was an bump in the internet <bg>.
