O.O.Excel
Hi Guys,
I'm experiencing a problem when e-mailing OOExcel documents to colleagues and I hope you can help!
I've been using OO since I purchased my Mac (less than 3 months ago) and when I finally figured out which format to save all word documents in, problems I encountered with sending documents & responders trying to open said documents became a thing of the past.
However, Ive been trying to send a spreadsheet (Excel) to someone and they cannot seem to open it.
I've saved said document in all formats available and when I send them they arrive naturally but when opened it's all a lot of gobbledeegook.
Can someone please assist me!? Alternatively you can reach me on +447773251761
Kind regards,
Rorie

To add to that, if editing the file isn't an issue, consider exporting it
to a PDF.

I save them as excel '97 and send them as an attachment But I use windows

recently. an alternative might be google docs if you are pressed for time
