Hello, I have an MS exel file that I cannot open in the scalc, but in the Ms Exel I can do. The error that it show me is: Error loading document file://my_file.xls Read-error This file is password-protected But when I open the same file in Ms Exel, it doesn't ask me for a password, and I can open the file with no problem
Created attachment 4691 [details] Ms Exel file with no passwd protection
Hi Lázaro, the file is protected ! Have a look at Extras - Protection - Workbook protection. This is engaged and therefore the file is encrypted. It's MS Style so we ccan't do anything about it. Have a look at Issue 402 which this one is a double too. Best regards Frank *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 402 ***

>> Have a look at Extras - Protection - Workbook protection. Sorry, where is this option?
It is Tools->... in an English Excel. The menu between Format and Data menu.
