Example file from Excel with dropdown form control

Attached file contains two dropdown list form controls made in Excel.

When the file is opened in Calc, these are present, but after saving and reloading they become invisible in both Excel and Calc.

1. Open attached document
2. Save as XLSX, reload
-> The dropdowns become invisible.
