The following (CLI) command ...

... produces a CSV text file, but apparently only of the first
spreadsheet in the file.
If I can only have one sheet, I want the 14th sheet
Can I specify the sheet I want, or can I get the whole file?
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to to offer

I received a reply that indicated that maybe some additional
information might be in order ... so ...hope this helps ...
...
There are 17 files and growing ... one per year
I want to write a program to address each of those files, one at a time
For each file then, I want to search it for any occurrence of a word
.. not where it is necessarily, but that it is there one or more times.
Once I know which file or files the word is in, I can locate it with
the "find" tool within LO.
I can do the programing ... I am just stuck on this conversion issue
Thanks again
Regards

Depending upon the uniqueness of the word you are looking for you can
search the .ods files directly. I just found the word Creep in one of my
files with zipgrep using;
zipgrep "Creep" "/Users/steve/Documents/file.ods"
I have seen other suggestions such as
|for file in *.ods; do if ( unzip -c "$file" | grep -q "yourWord"); then
echo "$file" fi done|
