Opening a worksheet from v1.x

I stumbled across a few excel files that whenever I try to
open them, I get the message "Cannot open normal document
created in Microsoft Excel for the Macintosh version 1.X."

How can I open these files?

Toodles!

Basically, the only solution seems to be to find an
earlier version with the ability to open 1.x files.

I couldn't tell if it works, but there's a free trial
period...
