Well, the free trail of office xp that came with my comp won't let me into it without a product key which I do not have. So, I can't fool around with the databases until I find a way to get excel without paying a couple hundred bucks for excel.
(I can open the excel files using wordpad, but the large paragraph format makes me weary of changing anything)
Anyone know of another program that will let me alter these files or is excel all I got?
Also, what is the program that will let me alter other files such as the files in the Scenario folder and the AI folder? Windows tells me it has no idea what type of file they are, so not sure where to start.

What about Open Office
Open Office is a free open-source suite of programs. It has a spreadsheet (will read and write MS Excel files), a word processor (will read and write MS Word files), a slide making program (will read and write Powerpoint files). The latest betas also have a database program that might read and write MS Access files.
You can find the latest release and beta versions here: http://www.openoffice.org
Hope it helps.
