Therefore there's a contradiction in your above statement. If it is an Excel 2003 document, then it's in .xls format, even though by the sound of it, it has a .xml file extension. You could try renaming it to .xls and see if LibreOffice opens it correctly (also try the "file" command I mentioned earlier).
Nada. Still get input/output error. BUT I tried Gnumeric and there it was so renaming had some advantages. (By that I mean getting the right options offered to open it.)
