Hello, I am having an issue with OpenOffice. I´ll try to explain the issue in
detail.

I have an .ods workbook created with OpenOffice 2.4 in Windows Vista Home
Premium. The workbook has 5 spreadsheets, some charts, several formulas and no
macros. The whole file has around 2.5MB in size. It opens, saves and behaves
perfectly with OpenOffice.

I have to make a .xls version of this spreadsheet to send it to a person that
has only excel. I go to File -> Save As and in the 'Save as type:' dropdown box
I choose 'Microsoft Excel 97/2000/XP (.xls)'. The file saves ok, but when I try
to open it in excel I get an error (see
http://boneco.googlepages.com/openoffice_error.odt). If I click ok Excel crashes
and recovers a blank document.

I would appreciate any help you could give so I can save this properly in the
.xls format and be able to open it in Excel XP.

I also uploaded a copy of the .ods file (see
http://boneco.googlepages.com/Glicemia2.ods).

Thanks in advance for any help.
