OpenOffice. org will open Excel files and even save in that
format. There are some differences however. Calc (OOo's spreadsheet
application) does not use Visual Basic, so any macros will have to be
rewritten. At least some of Excel's formulas are different enough
that they may have to be modified also.
For more detailed information about migrating from Excel to Calc,
see Ch6 - "Differences In Use Between Calc and Excel" in the
Migration Guide at the bottom of this web page:
