Hm, you have saved the new file in the file format of OpenOffice.org (.ods). Unfortunately, until now, MS hasn't provided a plugin or something similar for reading such files. (AFAIK, there is such a plugin in development, but the first is the plugin for Word, that is planned to be published around January 2007, the plugin for Excel will be later). For solving your problem, please be sure, that when you save your file with a new name, that you choose the correct extension (there is a drop down list in below the line, where you enter your filename). Select the correct version of Excel you need and then, your customers can read your files. HTH Sigrid PS: There is also a german speaking list: [email protected] Another remark: Please don't send any attachments to mailinglists, because there are many people still using 56 K modems. Normally, attachments are removed to protect people for not receiving viruses, but since your file was a .ods file, the server delivered it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
