There is an ODF Add-In for MS Word / Excel / PowerPoint. But it does much the
same as saving the ODS file in Calc as a XLS file. I.e. loosing conditional
formatting and the style formula doesn't work.

You're correct about the need for interoperability. I can't seem to find any way
short of performing the previously mentioned modifications to Calc itself. There
is already a work-around method to get it working inside the ODS file - so all
that is needed is to modify the programming to suit. In which case the XLS(x)
export / import filter also needs some modification to write / read Excel's
"Eng" format correctly. And then we'd need to test if this modification would
still allow the ODS file to be opened in an older version of Calc - if not,
we'll need to find another way.
