Hi Sergey,

There seems to be only one "Save as" option in office 2007,
"Excell 97 - 2003 workbook"
And that's what we used but to no succes.

>The XL8 is Excel 97 format. That's what user should select in Save AS dialog. VFP IMPORT/APPEND FROM commands will not recognize any later XLS formats.

>>When we save an XLSX as XLS in Office 2007, the resulting XLS cannot be imported in Foxpro using "Import from .... " type XLS (or XL5 or XL8)
>>Foxpro says : "Microsoft Excel file format is invalid"

>>Xlsx in not feasable, the resulting XML's do not contain the columnnames and the domparser is way too slow to import lage xml's in Foxpro.
