the output of exp tool is oracle proprietory(binary)
YOU cannot open and view it.
if you are just looking to create a csv file or tab seperated file to load into excel, just spool the output.

C:>sqlplus -s mag/mag
set head off
set feed off
set term off
spool s.xls
select ename||chr(9)||sal from emp;

KING    5000
TURNER  1500
JAMES   950
FORD    3000
MILLER  1300
spool off
exit

C:>cat s.xls
