I have created six files, all  with LibreOffice CALC

The first two files  contain source information
* a file labeled "Source ods file", filed in ods format
* a file labeled "Source xls file, filed in xls format

Then I created four files that link to these source files.
* Two files are in ods format, one linking to the xls-format source file, the 
other linking to the ods-format source file.
* Two files are in xls format, one linking tot he xls-format source file, the 
other linking to the ods-format source file.

When the two ods-format link files are opened and the links are updated, the 
numbers appear directly copied from the source file.  
When the two xls-format link files are opened and the links are updates, the 
numbers do not copy correcly and you only get REF#

In my earlier comments I noted that the link files in xls format do not
copy the sheet name

I hope this helps illustrate the problem
