Hi,

After spending Sunday afternoon sending emails to each other across the dining
table, we have found that the problem is coming from embedded charts. My
spreadsheet uses bar charts, but it could be coming from other charts as well.

I've attached 2 files. Excel was created in Excel then copied to Calc. Calc was
opened in Calc and saved without alteration.

While creating a non-confidential spreadsheet for you to examine, we identified
another problem which is much more serious. If you create a chart from a pivot
table in Excel, then open the spreadsheet in Calc, Calc destroys the chart and
the pivot table. See the attached Excel.xlsx and Calc.xlsx.

I hope the above information is helpful. If you need more, email me and I'll do
my best to provide it.

Paul
