Bug ID: 169299
Summary: cannot save a to a new format
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 25.8.2.2 release
Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc

When I try to use FILESAVE as “25_1040 (OBBBA)” an Excel format file, which I
got from “https://sites.google.com/view/incometaxspreadsheet/home/download”
to a new name with Libra formatting I get a box with several requests for
passwords. So I went to the author’s site
(https://sites.google.com/view/incometaxspreadsheet/home/faq) and found this,
about passwords in the Q&As
“I've encountered a protected cell. What is the password to unlock the
spreadsheet?
No password is needed. When using this spreadsheet, you may encounter protected
cell warnings. If you find a data entry cell to be protected, it is because it
is a calculated value using input from another location in the spreadsheet.
Read the instructions for that line to determine where the values are derived.
However, for most calculated cells, a manual override cell is provided if you
need to override the calculated value. After a while, you will figure out that
the spreadsheet is completely functional without needing to unprotect it.
In most cases, protected data entry cells are darker blue. Unprotected data
entry cells are white or light blue.”
I don’t want to overwrite the original file so I have to keep a separate
folder to hold the original files to make this work which gets confusing as I
the have to look at the dates on the file. There are a few more glitches
related to this spreadsheet (such as file locked, and extraneous (temp?) files
left in the directory after closing the document) but I have not researched or
documented them yet. This is a bigger issue for me right now as I had to
install Excel last night in order to work with this one.
