Answer:
If you have a google account. Transfer the file to google docs, and then you can convert it there. But if possible just change it in Open office.

If you have Microsoft Office XP, 2003, or 2007, then you can enable it to open OpenOffice files by downloading and installing the converter from http://odf-converter.sourceforge.net/ . As with most file conversions, not quite everything converts perfectly, so you should read the Known Issues page. -- garfield-n-odie Microsoft MVP 2005-2008 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/

The Open Office file will have to be opened in Open Office. It's a proprietary format. It needs to be saved in the Excel .xls extension for it to work. Open Office gives the user that choice when the file is saved.
