This is a wise path.  And it is the path that I took.  When I began using Star Office 
I had to port some excel files and indeed I had conversion problems.  But it did not 
take me long to do it (It would be wise to just port those that are really necessary)  
After that I just began creating new spreadsheet files with StarCalc and I am very 
satisfied with it. I am not a programmer but I am of the opionion that I use 
StarCalc's functionality extensively.  I run our office database using StarCalc.
