Hi Mark,
In Open Office, they supported xlsx to open and can't save back as xlsx.
Happy to see your reply that helps me.
with regards,
Arun

Sorry, there is no predefined method that you can call to perform a
conversion, neither is it possible to open the .xls and then save it as a
.xlsx. Of course, there is nothing at all preventing you from writing a
conversion method yourself but this would not be a trivial task.
Faced with your requirement, I would certainly look at OpenOffice. It has an
API that you can access through Java code and a series of filters that can
be utilised to perform type conversions.
