Hello,

If you are running Office 2003 Professional you can use the Datasheet view in a list and utilize some features from Excel. You can easily import lists from Excel into SharePoint.

If you set the list to be edited in Datasheet view you can open up a taskpane which will allow you to:

- Export and link to Excel
- Print with Excel
- Chart with Excel
- Create Excel PivotTable Report

The above works with Office 2003, I am not sure you will be able to utilize or see the list properly with another version of the Office suite.

Cheers,
Thomas
