Food Coop problems

Hi,

I'd like to get more info about the co-op. I haven't got excel to look at price list and my husband can't sign in to forums on his work computer. Is there any other way I can find out more about what's available and how to access it and costs etc?

Thanks
Beth

Hi Beth

You could either download microsoft excel viewer which I believe is free.. and that will allow you to read the spreadsheet - or you could download OpenOffice which is a free download and fully functional office suite which includes Calc - a spreadsheet alternative. I do know of a few people that are using this and are very happy with it, although I've not used it myself.

Hopefully someone else that is using open office can give you more info - meantime, the link is HERE

Hope this helps!

I can turn it in to a text file if you want.

It won't be very user friendly, but you'll be able to scroll down the whole thing.  You should be able to open it in wordpad which should come with your pc.

would this be any help?

Hi,

Could we possibly have the text version please? That would be fab. I know there are free downloads out there but this computer is pretty choc a block and slows right down from slow when more put on. The rate we take stuff off our daughter puts it on.

Thanks

openoffice is fantastic, I was v sceptical but my free trial period of MS office ran out and I wouldnt pay for buying it, so took the plunge. Have had it 2 weeks and so far no probs and just as easy to use as office,hurrah. No slowing probs either.

Open Office

Hi,

Sounds like I should have a look then. I need to have a clear out first but then will look.

Thanks

ok, I've created a text version.  Its not perfect and I've gotten rid of the extra columns.

If you pm me your email address I'll send it to you, otherwise I guess I can host it on my website for a limited period for you to download.  Its only 1MB in size

Open it with wordpad, you should be able to find that under programs/accessories/wordpad.

let me know what's the best option for you.
