OpenOffice will not open Excel 6.0 password protected worksheets correctly

If a work sheet is created with Excel 6.0, and is password protected, Open Office won't open it. Ordinarilly, a password box ops up aloowing a user to enter a password for the workbook. Instead I get the following message: Error loading document file:///c:\Documents%20And%20Settings/nzz1240.dow/My%20Documents/Schedule.xls: Read error. This file is password protected Question? Shouldn't OpenOffice popup a password box?
This is actually not a bug. As explained in issue 402 this can't be fixed. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 402 ***
