You want Microsoft Office Basic at least, to get Excel. Basic will include Word, Outlook and Excel. Other versions of Office will include more programs, like Power Point, Access, Publisher if you need or want those programs.
From my own experience with Works, it does not include Microsoft Excel. However, it does include some sort of spreadsheet software. For Excel, you would have to buy Microsoft Office, not Works.
Office 2003 contains, word, excel. microsoft outlook(email), powerpoint , access and microsoft frontpage, for webdesign.
