Windows 7 - emailed excel files but downloads are xml files

emailed excel files but downloads are xml files

On a temp basis I solved my problem but for future can somebody give me a clue . . .

Just went to Wins 7 at home. Also brand new to Office 07 at both work and home. I emailed myself Excel 2007 files and down loaded them on to my new Win 7 machine. They downloaded as XML files. Three different files, all automatically compress and when extracted they parsed out the files into xml sub files.

I ended up going to different machine that still had the XP os and they downloaded as regular xls files.

Any idea how to get around this in the future?

TIA
