Microsoft Does It Again

Show all headers | View raw

I'm not trying to start a flame war or bash Microsoft (let's fact it, 
they don't pay attention), but I have a problem with an Excel file.

For reasons unbeknownst to me, somehow it got saved as an Excel OOXML 
file.  I find that i don't have a Linux app that seems to able to open 
the file.  Contacting Microsoft Customer Service resulted in 
instructions to upgrade Excel to the current version.  THere is no way 
that I will spend the money to implement that suggestion.

Is there a Linux application that will allow me to recover the contents 
of the file?
