Not sure what you are trying to do with "exporting". If this is something you are trying to do from within Excel, it won't work, because Microsoft software does not support the ISO standard Open Document format used by OOo (OpenOffice.org). If you want to open an existing Excel file, just run OOo Calc and use the "File -> Open" menu option and the Excel file will be loaded into Calc. If you then want to save the file in Open Document ".ods" format, use the "File -> Save As.." menu option and select "OpenDocument Spreadsheet (ods)" from the "File Type" drop down selector. > ALSO I find the font size too small and indistinct to read your help & info > pages.

Maybe another list subscriber more familiar with Microsoft can offer you a solution. It would help if you could take a screen capture of what you are seeing, upload it to your web page and post the link back to this list.
