Open Excel in Internet Explorer

[Peter]

Hi,

i am currently using windows xp professional with office 2000.
In use an internet page every day, where i create an excel-spreadsheet via an servlet...
This excel-spreadsheet opens automatically in one of the site-frames.
The problem is: I cannot see any toolbars and i cannot activate them...
On another desktop with windows 2000, i am able to activate the toolbars
So, how to activate the toolbars under windows xp....??

Thanks a lot for your help

In win98, I can do this:
Start Windows Explorer
View|Folder Options
File Types Tab
scroll down to MS Excel Worksheet
Select it
click the edit button
There's an option to "browse in same window". Uncheck it.

That's where you can toggle the "confirm open after download", too.
