A riddle

[Chewyeti]

So i was sent this email....

-calculator error LOL- on my part has since been solved

Here is the riddle.... (the site wont let me upload the spreadsheet)...

List your answers here

There are 7 girls on a bus (only the girls, no driver, which is kinda scary).
Each girl has 7 backpacks.
In each backpack, there are 7 big cats.
For every big cat there are 7 little cats.Question: How many legs are there in the bus?
The number of legs is the password to unlock the attached Excel spreadsheet.

If you open it, add your name and send it on to see who else can unlock it.
It can be done.......
