I would like to take something of a straw poll, if that's ok. I simply want to know whether any of you have shared documents using the ODF format with MS Office users (preferably in a business environment), and what was the reaction? What problems
I am not seeking advice on how to share documents with MS Office users. Nor am I interested in an in-depth analysis of why one might experience problems in sharing such documents. I simply want to know your experience. I have been sharing a simple spreadsheet document between LO (at home) and MSO (at work) in the OD format. The experience has been interesting on the MS Office side of it. I get error messages (that don't seem to be real errors), and if I choose the "repair" option, it claims to fix the errors, and even gives me a link to click to see the list of alleged corrections. The list is just a near-empty XML document. And to save a document in ODF raises a warning *every single time*, with no opportunity to say "stop warning me". I know most of us still have to deal with both suites. I just wonder if anyone else (how many???) has experienced similar issues. Thanks, Don -- D.C.
