Adds no program working with xls files
burayNovember 14, 2007
Pros
a "lite xls viewer" sounds good idea
Cons
It just gives two directories of samples, which are useless for my (and a possible downloader's) need. It does not help with existing xls files.
Summary
There is no program, just samples.

Pros
Cons
There was no free program to use, just sample files.
Summary
This is exactly what I needed to modify existing XLS files from my VB.NET app.

Pros
Works as advertised.
Cons
Current limit for ExcelLite Free is 150 rows -- I would prefer that to be 200 or more.
