You can't do it . .



Have whoever sent you the file convert it to a pdf . . .then you can print it.



Also, Microsoft is allowing free beta trials of Office 2007, so you could download Excel from there and then you might be able to print it with the 2007 beta.

Microsoft has Word, Excel and power point Viewers that can be downloaded for free from the microsoft web site. Download the viewer and you can print out the excel document.

You can also download a free version of Excel viewer from Microsoft. It won't let you edit it but it will let you view it and print it. However, if you want something fully functional, I recommend Open Office 2.0

All you have to do was go to the link below to download Microsoft Viewer. it is available for Excel, Words, PowerPoint, and Visio. Viewer software let you open, view, and print files, even if you don't have microsoft office software installed.

You can't. Try downloading Open Office. Their version of Excel may be able to do it for you.

You cannot print Excel documents if you don't have Excel.



If you have conversion filter to convert to PDF, or if the sender can send the files in .pdf format, you will likely have Adobe reader and can then print.

You did not say what version you are on, but here is a reader for Excel 2003. It is probably backwards compatible :
