I suspect the reason you can read the spreadsheet is that the files were created with later Versions of the Works Suite that used the xlr format for the spreadsheets. The xlr format is a stripped down version of the xls binary format that AOO does support.
I believe that LibreOffice may support the Works test and older spreadsheet formats. As you are not subscribed to the list I have cc'd your e-mail as a courtesy. Please reply only to the list and not my personal e-mail. Regards Keith McKenna
