I have been using excel 4 on Mac computers for years, and like it. I recently
purchased Office :mac 2008 and wish to convert simple spread sheets. How?
If you saved your file in XL4 format (e.g., workbooks as .xlw and
worksheets as .xls), XL08 should open them just fine.
XL08 no longer *saves* in XL4 format though, so if you wish to save
changes, you'll have to choose another format (e.g., XL97-2004 .xls or
XL2007/2008 .xlsx).
