Hi, On the advice of another Open Office user, I just downloaded it.
My PC crashed and I had someone retrieve data from it. In the
meantime I got a Mac and now want to load some of the data from the
PC. The data I want is on a CD and I am unable to import my
spreadsheets that have an extension of xlr.
Now that Open Office is on the Mac, what are the steps to take to
copy/transfer the xlr files from the CD to the Mac? Any assistance
would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

I had never heard of ".xlr" files so I used Google. I found this which
may help you: http://forums.macosxhints.com/archive/index.php/t-68409.html
If you can get the files into Excel format (".xls") then OpenOffice
should be able to open them. Alternatively, see if you can find someone
who has Works installed (you may need to pay) and use it to export the
files in Excel format - I'm pretty sure that's possible.
Perhaps a Mac expert on this list can provide further help.
