Hi :)
The new XlsX format is notoriously unreliable, in my opinion and as
people seem to suggest on this mailing list.  Each version of MS
Office 'accidentally' introduces different variances from each other
and from the ISO standard as published.

So, if you move to another version of MS Office then there is a good
chance you will find pre-existing documents also have problems with MS
Office.

The current best format to allow different people to actively work on
spreadsheets together and exchange between each other is the older MS
format.  Use
File - "Save As ... "  - MS Excel 2003/Xp
or something like that to save in
.xls
without the X at the end.  This allows Android and iPad/iPhones users
to also freely use the spreadsheets.

For the longer term storage of documents the ODF formats are better.
For spreadsheets the specific one is .ods and it is likely to become
the best one to use when sharing and collaborating too in the next few
years.

Regards from
Tom :)
