I'm receiving files from a web site that are supposed to be in excel 97-2000 format. When I'm on a windows platform OO calc opens the file as a spreadsheet. When I try to open the same files on my Mac they open in OO Write, even though I've specified that I want to open an MS excel .xls file.

I've opened the files in a text editor and inspected them. They contain nothing but an HTML table so I'm a little annoyed that anyone even pretends that they are excel files. However, MS excel opens them and utilises the HTML code to format the cells. OO Calc on windows opens them and I need the same functionality on the mac. Can anyone suggest anything?
