    XLS compare on an OpenOffice created document fails

    When trying to compare two XLS files that were created via OpenOffice, it returns two script errors (which displays the same dialog).



    A blank XLS file that will also generate the error if you compare it to itself and click past the quick compare.

    Hello,

    The Excel comparisons in Beyond Compare require a copy of Excel installed on the machine. Otherwise, you will need to save them as CSV or another delimited style.

    We also have some OpenOffice file formats available here:
