There is more than that.  If you scroll down to the comparison charts it 
clearly shows that OpenOffice takes and converts WK4 files:

What I see there is the following statement at the very beginning:



   If you don't have Microsoft Excel 2003 installed, try to use

   for example free OpenOffice.org (LibreOffice) Calc to open

   .wk4 file and save it as .xls files.



I don't know how to decode the two specific entries under Multiplatform 
software, including one specifically about "Apache OpenOffice Calc 
(OpenOffice.org Calc)."



I have made a comment on their page about this.  I suspect that these are very 
old entries - all of the images on the Apache OpenOffice entry there are from 
the old OpenOffice.org versions shipped by Sun Microsystems and Oracle.  As far 
as we can tell, .wk4 was never supported.

This is one of the areas where there are clear and distinct differences
between LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice. Differences that most third
party sites neither know nor appreciate.

IIRC, WK4 support in LibreOffice is through a third party extension ---
one that doesn't work with Apache OpenOffice.

Thank you for your meticulous investigation.

I am certain that your making comments at those places will be very helpful in

RE: problem with fractions in spreadsheet.

[Dennis E. Hamilton]

Also, try entering the value as a formula.  E.g., "=5/32" (without quotes), so 
that the result is required to be numeric. Then the Fraction formatting will 
also work.

Any number of things can remove the file.
But the basic answer is in the message - reinstall.

Re: problem with fractions in spreadsheet.

[Wade Smart]

Right click in the cell. Select Format.
In the window that comes up, left Tab Numbers,
in the Category if you scroll down you can select Fraction.
It will now look like a fraction when you write 6 1/3.

It is not in the Apache OpenOffice documentation - it is in the

You might want to let them know the error.
