Sorry, Mike, try this link instead. http://tinyurl.com/22sukp  Don't know if it's a different version than the other, but at least it mentions Vista as being supported.

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Set Associations control panel."
When I finally located this Set Associations control panel it does not have a .xls option. Is there a way for me to open Excel spreadsheets?
