Hi - couple of suggestions.
1. Save the excel file in another format to work with any software that you may have.
2. Try one of the open source free office suites such as the one you can find at http://www.openoffice.org/ - this can read and save excel / word format etc.
3. Try a service such as the one you will find at
http://logmein.com./ You may need approval & or assistance from work so that you can access your work pc from home and it may not be the fastest method if you don't have at least cable internet connection at both pc's.
4. Look into MS licensing - if I recall there is a method whereby you can install a second copy on a notebook or home pc with your work licence.
Hope it helps

you ought to purchase them standalone, besides the indisputable fact that that is really a lot extra expensive that way. you'll pay $280 for be conscious and PowerPoint one after the different. place of work homestead and student incorporates both one in each of those and Excel and is $150. (First link.) Use my 2d link to confirm in case your college qualifies for the $80 acquire (or $one hundred with media) of Microsoft place of work professional Plus 2010. in case you do not extremely favor Microsoft be conscious and PowerPoint, OpenOffice is loose. that is truly merely as solid in case you do not extremely favor the Microsoft classes.
