Hi,
There isn't an Excel version of it, but you should be able to save the webpage to disk from your web browser and then use the saved webpage while off-line, or even copy it to another computer. If you do copy the save webpage to another computer or another location be aware that there will be a saved '.htm' file and also folder with a similar name that contains all the other resources needed for the webpage to run properly – make sure to copy both.
Cheers, Robin
