    Excel Problem


    Hi, a client sent me a file named "data.bin". It contains an excel spreadsheet, but excel (2010) opens it and apart of its name everything appears in code kind off. So I am pretty confused. Tried everything to access the data. No success, I tried: isobuster, imgburn, alcohol, nada.
    Is there a way to let check the file online? Any ideas are welcome....

I can't seem to...
