How save .xlsx -files
Hallo OpenOffice
I would like to save EXCEl-files in the .xlsx-version - how can that be done?
My friends are using MS-office, latest version...

Hi -
The OOXML format has been around for a decade and MSFT continues to tweak it ever so slightly. They also make changes to XLS, XLSB and the other binary formats. This is done at every release both Windows and Mac.
Does LO read XLSX?
Regards,
Dave

What can an .xlsx file do that an .xls cannot? Why bother changing formats? The MS applications that read .xlsx can all read .xls, and OpenOffice's native .ods formats.
Tell your MS-using friends to master their package instead of driving it blindly,

Not possible using OpenOffice; the MS applications that can read .xlsx files can also read .xls and .ods files which OO can make (.ods is its default)
