How to open Microsoft Excel files?

Question

I would like to read my Microsoft Excel files on my Android device. Is there anything built-in natively? Is there an application for viewing and editing Excel files on Android?

Answer 1

You can try Documents To Go. You can create, edit, and view MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and even PDF docs.

As a free alternative, you can upload your Excel docs to Google Docs and use the free GDocs app.

Answer 2

Here are two ideas:

• upload it to google docs (you can do it from the browser) and view it there.
• use an office application such as OpenOffice, OfficeSuite or QuickOffice or Mobile Document Viewer

Answer 3

you can try Documento - Office Viewer it an application to only read & view documents and also XSL file is very cheap compared to the other applications and very good. I think it costs one dollar or one Euro, I'm not sure I purchased it before 2 month ago. hope that i help you.

Answer 4

My favorite app for this is OfficeSuite Pro but I got it when it was the free app of the day, so I can understand not wanting to pay $14.99... it is a great program though!

Answer 5

OfficeSuite is a great app for viewing and editing documents. There are two versions one as a Viewer (free), the other as a Pro (payable) version. There is also a trial version of the Pro version, so you could try it out if you decide to buy it.
