Hi :)
In the few cases where there have been problems we tend to find the older formats are more
compatible. Xls rather than XlsX, Doc instead of DocX and so on. Obviously it is better to use
OpenDocument Formats such as Ods and Odt as used in every other office suite even MS Office
2007&2010 can read the older version of those formats.
Just out of curiosity have you considered reading the spreadsheet data with a database front-end
such as LO Base or MS Access?
Base is built to read many different back-ends that contain the data and it might even be able to
help convert the data into a more reliable format. Spreadsheets can be disordered all too easily.
A proper database program such as MariaDb/MySql, Postgresql can provide a much safer back-end to
keep the data more securely.
Regards from
Tom :)

Dear Sir:
I would like to know whether 1) the LibreOffice is compatible with Microsoft Office 2007, 2)
Also whether your spreadsheet can download up to 1 million records at a time and 3) also whether
it is compatible with Windows XP.
If not then what are its requirements for hardware and software.
Thanking you.
Yours truly,
Syed Zaffer
I wii try to answer your questions:
1. MSO 2007 compatibility - is generally very good. Personally I have had very little problems with
handling MSO formats.
2. I do not know what the specific size limits are and if it memory dependent. Again, my experience
has been that LO can handle files as large or larger than MSO 2010 Excel.
3. LO is compatible with Windows XP, see the following page for more details:
