Yes you can do this thru iTunes. But you will need to get a spreadsheet app for your ipad. I purchased "Numbers". There may be other apps that work but I do not know of them. I upload many spreadsheets thru iTunes to my ipad 4.

You could use something like dropbox to get the files easily on your iPad.

If you just want to view the Excel spreadsheet without any mods you don't need any special apps.
If you want to make mods you would need an app like Numbers, already mentioned.

Top picture is just opening on iPad for read only.
Bottom picture is the same spreadsheet open in Numbers.

Thanks to both of you. I can see the advantage in purchasing "numbers" for even just read only-much better organized. Thanks again to both of you! I'm liking this iPad more and more.
