software

I use MS Window XP Pro -

In internet explorer, I open or download excel files from links,
however whenever the excel spreadsheet opens, it opens from internet
explorer mode. I need it to open directly to MS excel mode.

How do i do this in XP Pro / Internet Explorer mode???

If you could give step by step instructions, it would be MOST
appreciated.

I remember someone told me to go to internet options but I could not
solve it.

Please help--

Microsoft Windows 2000 / Windows XP

Open Control Panel, Open Folder Options, Click File Types, Locate quot;XLS
Microsoft Excel Worksheetquot;, and click the Advanced button. Check the
box that says quot;Confirm open after downloadquot; and uncheck the box that
says quot;Browse in same Windowquot;. Click Ok.--
