URGENT :::how to open the uploaded OpenOffice SpreadSheet in Windows

[itramesh_p]

Hi frnds,
i uploaded a OpenOffice SpreadSheet (.sxc)in windows platform .now i want to download that file. But when I click that download link of that file .it is not opening ,in the particular correct xls(Spreadsheet) format.
its opening that file with some mixing of junk values. i saved that file as .sxc format before uploading .

But if i renamed that file as .xls extension means then i can easilly Upload and downloding also done properly.
Its opening the file in Correct format .any one can you clarify this doubt Urgently and send me the code (java Script code)

My Scritp code is:
<SCRIPT type=\"text/javascript\">

var tempstr;
function call_XLfun(S){
tempstr=S;
var theSpreadsheet = new ActiveXObject(\"Excel.Application\")");
var theBook = theSpreadsheet.Workbooks.Open(tempstr)");
theSpreadsheet.visible=true;");
}
</script>

You mean it shows the contents of the file in your browser (with lots of stupid characters) instead of opening and showing the file in OpenOffice? Maybe the easiest solution is to right-click and download the file and then open it in OpenOffice.

You downloaded the file, and then you couldn't open it in OpenOffice? Are you sure it's a valid OpenOffice file?
