Posting an Excel Table

I'd like to post a spread sheet I've made using Microsoft Excel 2003 however the .xls file extension isn't accepted in the attachments page.
Changing the format over to a PDF kills the spread sheet and the result is unsuable.
What are my options?


From the Microsoft Excel Format page:
Excel 97- Excel 2003 Workbook
.xls
The Excel 97 - Excel 2003 Binary file format (BIFF8).

Thanks.

Re: Posting an Excel Table

We can add the .xls extension but please know that doesn't mean you can embed the Excel spreadsheet inside a post for viewing like you can with pictures. That's just not possible to do. Viewers need to have the reader to view the contents of an Excel spreadsheet. If the .xls extension is added, members will have to download the file and then have a reader on their machine to view the contents.

Update: I've added the .xls extension as an Attachment.

Re: Posting an Excel Table

jt i was wondering if it would be possible to get .msq and .vex added as well
alot of members are using megasquirt ecm's and the files needed for tunning are in those formats

would make it easier for sharing those files when members are helping other member by either looking at there tune files or helping others straighten out there tune files
