Whenever I open this application (it happens with a couple of others too) I get an error:

Texas, where else?
Your Mac's Specs

My guess is that it simply is not compatible with 10.6.

Tried it here, same error.

The only suggestion I give to try since there is a QT error, would be to grab your SL disc and under the optional installs is the previous version of QT (7.6 I think it is). See if that will allow it to open or not.

Ah, a shame - I just tried it having installed QT7, with no luck.

Guess I'll stick with Excel for now - but cheers for the suggestion.
