Help in opening and editing an excel workbook from a web-browser

[test]

I'm not really much help, am I.

Heyy!
Thank you for the response! Your response helped my indirectly
I am not great at programming and looks like I'd have to get comfortable with a bunch of things before I can use your fix.
My use case is that I need an excel template to be copied and opened each time a new record is being entered. The excel template contains formulae and should allow data entry so that the formulae can be used (this is very easy to do in excel, so I wanted to stick with this).

What i ended up doing, is opening the local file with a button click using:

Error:
start wps <path>

, which gets the job done.
