Excel documents appearance?

I was wondering if there is anyway you can get an excel document to appear like its not excel, i saw one a few months ago that was a table/questionaire, i knew it was an excel document becasue of the file extension but other than it was hard to tell how it had been created.
Answer
Yeah, there are a number of ways you can. for one, you can change the color of the gridlines. then you turn the gridlines off. you can also turn the column and row headers off and a number of other different things. to play around with the views, go to: ls > options.. then select the view tab and start playing around with the settings on the view tab. to further make it not look like an excel file, i believe you can even change the icon that's associated with the .xls excel extension through windows. and i think there may even be the possibility of changing the extension to a custom extension of your own making and still have it act like a .xls file. so technically you could make it look different in a bunch of ways from your typical excel file look.
