Created attachment 182453 [details] HTML Excel Workbook An HTML file (labelled internally as ExcelWorksheet) with an xls extension opened in Calc does not import all the table data unless the filter "HTML Document (Calc) (.html, .xhtml, .htm)" is explicitly chosen. Double-clicking the file opens in Calc with only one cell visible. If the extension is renamed .odt it opens in Writer with all data visible. The same file opens correctly in Excel 2010 although with warning about incorrect extensions; apparently later versions of Excel open it without complaint. This problem arises in Ask.LibreOffice https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/xls-file-does-not-open-in-libre-calc-but-opens-in-google-sheets/81770 An average user is unlikely to investigate every filter option, especially not to the 70th filter in the list. The original questioner in Ask.LibreOffice appears to have not found the filter although it is explicitly mentioned in one comment and in one answer. Can the filter selection be made easier? Or made automatic as the name Excel Worksheet is included inside the file?
