The attached file is not an Excel-document but a simple text with some html
markup. On Windows OS the file extension xls is often connected to Excel or
ExcelViewer. So people sometimes fake the file extensions so that Windows starts
Excel when the user double-clicks the file icon. And Excel is only a spreadsheet
application and therefore tries to open every file it gets in some way.
But Openoffice.org is a suite, which contains several modules. So OpenOffice.org
looks at the content to decide which module to use. It sees some html-markup and
therefore opens it in Writer/Web.
For to open such a 'broken' file in Calc, you have to select the filter by
yourself. In the file open dialog first select the file. Then open the file type
drop-down list and select the type "Web Page Query (Openoffice.org Calc)
(*.html, *.htm)".
