Help!

In what is probably supposed to be a good move, HMRC has apparently switched to Open Document formats for files on its website. Even though the file descriptions still claim that they're in MS Office formats.

Even though Wikipedia claims that post-2007 versions of Excel can open .ODS files, this apparently doesn't apply to OSX versions, because my copy of Excel doesn't know what it is. Mike suggested importing it into Google Drive and then exporting it again, but Google Drive failed to be able to open it in a non-specific way that implied it thought it had done even though it was a blank screen.

Could someone who has the ability to do so be nice enough to send me this spreadsheet as an Excel file?

Ta!

Edit: Sorted, thanks chaps!
