You have only read one small part of what the website says. OOo (OpenOffice.org) Calc will, by default, save in Open Document format (an ISO standard). MS Excel is incapable of reading this format. If you want Excel users to be able to open your files, you must use the "File -> Save As..." and select "Excel" from the "File Type" drop down list. See: http://user-faq.openoffice.org/faq/ar01s02.html#SAVE_AS_DOC Hope this helps.
