Conversion Calc to Excel

I want to converse a LibreCalc document to Excell, because my companion can not open the LibreCalcversion.
What to do?

Normally Excel can open ODS format.
Maybe your partner has a wrong file association in the operating system.
Try:
He should open Excel and then open the Calc ODS.


Otherwise you can save your file as XLS with “Save as…”.

If you need to create documents in an external format:

  1. Make sure that you work and store your data with native file formats (ODS for Calc) if possible - because storing your data in any external file format will result in some problems like formatting loss or formatting mess;
  2. Use File|Save a Copy and choose the saved file type to store to an external format that you pass to your companion.

Calc is much more polite than Excel: it is much better at reading and writing documents in opponent’s formats. :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks! it works.

Please tell us, how?
