I've been out of the iWork loop for a long time. I realize Numbers '09 pre-dates Office 2010, but will it view XLSM files. I've found statements online indicating both that it does and does not do that.

All I want is to see the spreadsheets accurately, not work with them.

which OS are you running? if you have quick look you don't need iWork..just hit spacebar on it and quick look should show you an XLSM just fine

i just tested it and it worked on my machine a-ok running 10.7

Yowza! I rarely deal with spreadsheets and had no idea that was possible. Thanks!!

no worries. works with word, excel, music, video, iWork, pretty sure powerpoint as well, pdfs...all sorts of files.

one of my favourite features of the OS and almost impossible to live without once you're used to it.
