How to convert MS Project to MS Excel. I don't have MS Project.

I don't have MS PRoject but someone sent me an MS Project file. I need to
convert that file to Excel - or another MS Project. I have the 2003 office
suite, but not Project. Thank you! jane

I'm not clear on what MS Project does. Are you able to open the file in
Excel? If so, does it look pretty much like a normal spreadsheet at that
point? If yes, what happens if you do a Save As, and change the file type to
Excel sheet?
