Hi Frank,
You are right, I made up a .xls for myself and that one opens as Calc but the cellnumbers are not the same as in the original e.g. C10 in xls will be C9 in OOcalc.

Also I looked at some of the files I receive as .xls and the first like I see (in 1st Page) is:
<script language='_javascript_'>var tfb = new Date();</script><html xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:topline="http://www.alexander.nl/topline">
Clearly this is the problem. The file that is send to me is NOT .xls!

But I notice that OO1.1.5 does not have a problem with that.

I tried a workaround: first open in Excel and save as a worksheet; but OO202 still does not recognize the value in the cells when referenced in another spreadsheet.

Thanks and regards,
Martine

Hi Martine,

could you attach an Excel file showing this problem ? If the file opens with
writer/web, it's most probably a HTML file with XLS extension. As this file
isn't a valid binary Excel file but an text based HTML file it's correct that it
opens in writer/web. So this is probably a double to some other Issues.

Frank
