Did you use FILE -> SAVE AS -> and choose from the "save as type:" drop down list Microsoft Excel 97/2000/XP Template (.xlt)?

Also, the checkbox should be checked for "Automatic file name extension."

Thanks for the info! The problem we are having is I rec'd the templates from my boss' Microsoft excel via email, opened, filled in and emailed back so he could print them. His comp. is saying it can't open it and asking what program it was created in. Any tips? Hope it is ok to ask! Thanks so much!

    Yes - and no.  It is mostly compatible, but macros may not work
    since OpenOffice uses StarBasic not Visual Basic.  You can read
    and save-as Excel, except for the latest M$oft DOCX formats and
    the OpenOffice community is working on filters for these.
