Hi :) Possibly the best way to deal with the whole issue is to open the file in MS Office 2007 or 2010 on a Windows machine. I think their MS Office for Mac 2008 is really based on their 2003 release not their 2007 one. I think they did add the infamous ribbon rather than normal menus but it's still using 2003 underneath. I could be wrong as my memory is a bit vague about it. Use their "Save As ..." to save to Ods format. Then it should open in LibreOffice with no problems. MS Office uses the older Ods format, version 1.0/1.1 instead of 1.2 but LibreOffice has no trouble with that. Alternatively use "Save As ..." to save in "Excel (97/2000/Xp)" format so that it save as the xls without the X at the end. Again LibreOffice has almost no trouble with that. I don't know why MS couldn't use the newer ODF formats, it's not as though they were hidden or any more difficult to implement.
