Re: How save .xlsx -files

2017-05-21 Thread Dave Fisher
Hi -

The OOXML format has been around for a decade and MSFT continues to tweak it 
ever so slightly. They also make changes to XLS, XLSB and the other binary 
formats. This is done at every release both Windows and Mac.

Does LO read XLSX?

Regards,
Dave

Not possible using OpenOffice; the MS applications that can read .xlsx files 
can also read .xls and .ods files which OO can make (.ods is its default)
