Stewart and Uwe,
   I have just tried the same and, sure enough, there are problems with Netscape
that disappear with IE.... very strange... maybe it depends on the interpretation
of the MIME type by the browser. However I am not in control of the Web server
that hosts the weaksignals site, so cannot change on that server the MIME type
assigned to files with xls as extension. Maybe I will zip it.... with zip files there
are
not problems for sure...
