You can try OpenOffice, just be sure to download the spreadsheet part of it. I know it helps with other vista works, and words compatabilitie issues. It may also be helpful with your Quattrom, but I cannot be positive that this is the solution.

Hi, mickysace, and welcome to the forums.

Vista by itself does nto come with an Office suite pre-installed (OEM *computers* may, but Vista itself does not) and reading on the forums, it is possible that OpenOffice.org's Calc function may not work as well.

From [Solved+Issue] Converting QuattroPro .qpw files (View topic) • OpenOffice.org Community Forum the suggetion is to download a trial version of Quattro Pro from Corel and convert all your files to Excel format, which can then be opened in the OO.o Calc program, or (of course) ini Excel itself.
