Like Dewbie I have no experience with Saluki, but again assuming it's similar to other puppies in /usr/share/applications you should find an icon "gnumeric.desktop". Clicking on that should start gnumeric, also the icon can be dragged to the desktop to act as a quickstart facility should you wish.

I've never used Saluki, but if it's similar to other Puppies, then click on:
Menu / Utility / Rxvt terminal emulator
Type gnumeric, then hit Enter key.
This may provide clues as to any missing dependencies, etc.

cannot get gnumeric to work on saluki alfa...have downloaded various versions from puppy package manager and ibiblio.org... the gnumeric pets will install, but do not work...

fyi...all other packages downloaded work fine (firefox, abiword, clockset, shutdown manager, etc)...

thanks in advance for suggestions...
