Presumably you mean the OpenDocument Spreadsheet format. That's not
OOXML, it's ODF, the international standard document format
implemented in OpenOffice.org, KOffice, and many others.
<URL:http://opendocument.xml.org/>
Note that OOXML is not related to OpenOffice.org. Also note that
OOXML, as specified, is not implemented by *any* software at present,
and there are strong reasons to believe it cannot feasibly be
implemented as specified. (Microsoft Office 2007 implements it only
partially, but writes documents incompatible with the standard; e.g.
the spreadsheet data contains binary blobs not documented in the OOXML
specification.)
