I have High Sierra and it won't open the new version of Numbers. I don't need the new version. I am happy with simple spreadsheets on my old version. Is there a way to access a previous spreadsheet, even for information only?

If you are saving your documents in iCloud Drive then you could try signing into iCloud.com and going to Numbers for iCloud. Find the document there and Download a Copy as Excel or csv, which you should then be able open with your old version of Numbers.
For the best experience with Numbers, though, I highly recommend upgrading if you can, especially if you are also opening your documents on other devices where their format is automatically updated. Numbers has gotten better (not more complicated).

Thanks for the information. My trusty workhorse MacBookPro is ten years old and will only support ios 13.6. The newest version of Numbers needs IOS 15. I don't have the resources in this computer to upgrade to IOS 15 so I was thinking of a work-around, before having to invest in a new MacBook.
