biggest problem with gnumeric is that it can only save in excel 95
format - as far as i can tell it can not save in excel 2000 format. this
is a problem in many business environments.
does anyone know if there is a plan to integrate excel 2k formatting.

I believe that gnumeric can open files with up to 65000 lines. If
I am correct, both gnumeric and Excel have this limit. They will
open larger files, but they will truncate the files at line 65
000.
This is what I recall from a colleague who have used these
softwares on large files.

I believe OpenOffice is what I used. I see from other postings
that both OpenOffice and gnumeric have been updated and may
be able to import large Excel files now. I may try again someday.
I appreciate all the replies.

You might want to try gnumeric. Probably upgrade to a more updated
stable version (1.0.x) than the one provided by Redhat (unless you're
using 7.3, which I think the gnumeric is quite updated). In my opinion,
gnumeric is better than open office in spreadsheet area. In claims to be
fully compatible

Have you tried OpenOffice? I Can't speak about large Excel files, but
the current version seems to be very stable and I've had no problems
opening MS files. Check:

My brief foray into Linux was more than a year ago. I installed
RedHat version 7. I left it and returned to Windows when the
Excel-like program in Linux (free version) would not open
my large (20,000+ row) Excel files. It tried to, but gave an
error that I no longer remember. Has anybody had
