<font face="Comic Sans MS">It seems to me there is a problem. I
would guess there's either a bug in LibreOffice or M$ has done
something to Excel that makes its spreadsheets not display
correctly in LibreOffice.<br>
<br>
Does Excel work under Wine? If so, that might be a solution.<br>

Baaaad idea... <br>
The man uses Excel *HEAVILY*, and LibreOffice just could not keep
up.
<br>
But it was not lack of features or limitations, it was *STUPID*
(but dangerous) things like cells not showing the real value
and/or recalculating wrong. <br>
I didn't take his word for it, he showed me the (unbelievable)
problems (I could not believe what I was seeing).
<br>
The guy is back to Excel...
<br>
What am I missing?
