Neither OOo or Gnumeric are willing to open it. If it's in a relatively simple format, you could parse it yourself.
True, but I really would love to be able to simply open it, edit it, and pass it on. What I did to "solve" it was to send it to someone that had Microsoft Excel who then converted the file to the binary Excel file format that I then could open with Gnumeric. Basically, I was hoping someone had a magical solution (like installing another package, ticking a configuration option, or something) so I wouldn't have to rely on someone that had Excel (nor parsing it myself). Is there a file format converter or something? Thanks, Dusty
