Well, to operate on an Excel spreadsheet you do indeed need a copy of MS Excel.

That was true in the 1990's but there have been alternatives for well over a decade now, and the current Excel format is an open XML based format which anyone can implement freely, and many do including OpenOffice and Apple's office suite.

Indeed. Any programme that can import and save .xls

Indeed. Any programme that can import and save .xls

Any programme that can import and save .xls AND run Excel macros.

That's a daft statement. You can't open excel with Photo's or notepad. I have numbers on my iPad and if you try to open it the macros run wild, pre-fill the boxes with rubbish, and many of the drop downs do not work, but you can delete them and type in responses. Then it changes the visual format. I assume that they want to do some kind of import from the excel sheet, good luck with that after Numbers has mucked it up.

I just had a look and I'm not seeing any macros in the sheet. It has a bunch of data validation lookups, but those should work in any app. If Numbers isn't working then there may well be issues with Numbers, try a different app.
