------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Oct 17 02:48:51 +0000 2008 ------- Office 2003 compatibility took a dive in 3.0.0. I tried the spreadsheet. The XML format is broken. it looks like it is putting formulas into the XML file like maybe it is supposed to, but Microsoft Excel 2003 won't open the file that OpenOffice makes. it complains "Table" and error dumps into a log file. Nor will OOo spreadsheet open a complicated multi-tabbed spreadsheet with references between tabs I made with Office 2003. attached is a real excel multitabbed 2003 xml file with references between tabs. calc is doing some awful strange things to the formulas, like adding extra right perens on functions, etc. file in question is the URL http://JesusnJim.com/z/can-i-open-this-excel-in-ooo3.xml it is a real excel file. the formulas look very different from that used by OOo. but OOo 3.0.0 won't open it. opens fine in Excel 2003 & I can edit & resave. so this is both an import and an export problem. both are broken. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
