Um, this might sound redundant but... why not simply attach the Excel file (if you have it) itself (zipped since .xls isn't a valid attachment format) to a post after uploading it? Of course, that requires that everyone have Excel installed though.

That seems like the best solution to me, IMO.
 
:indiff: I don't have it.
I just saved the picture he posted.

Then again, I don't know much about comp. programs like these....unforunately.
 
Looks to me like Excel is being used in its secondary role as a database application. Web presentation of that much data is really better done using a database with a proper query engine.

Of course, Excel can actually write web pages itself (albeit very very badly), if you're extremely lazy.
 
I guess my posts weren't clear enough.

What I'm trying to do is blow this up so I can see the words. If I put open the image with Excel, I get wierd symbols.

Any help is still appreciated.:indiff:

Given the detail of the image and the fact that it is scaled down to show the columns and not the information itself, I'd say that there really is no way of pulling the information from the excel list in the picture. You'd be better off getting the actual file itself if you could instead.
