MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / May 2008Format Converter
Just now I downloaded what is supposed to be an Excel spreadsheet from Amazon Advantage. It is actually an XML file with an XLS extension, so I assume that it should have been an XLSX file instead of XLS for Excel 2007. Is there a converter to enable opening the file in Excel 2000? If there it a converter on Microsoft's web site, it is well hidden. >>It is actually an XML file with an XLS extension, so I assume that it should have been an XLSX file instead of XLS for Excel 2007 That's not quite right. An XLSX file is not an XML file. It is a ZIP file made up mostly of XML files. If your file is pure XML I'd try opening it directly in Excel to see what you get. If that's not usable because of the tags, etc., maybe there are utilities that strip off tags or otherwise convert XML to TXT files.
