[Elecraft] Excel Test

[Raymond Sills]

In addition to Libre Office, there still is Open Office (now supported by The Apache Software Foundation).It appears that at some point the original Open Office morphed into Libre Office... and AFAIK, all the generated files from each application are compatible with each other, and will permit you to export a new file in Word (or other MS App) format.   Open Office is free to download and use.
The latest version rescued me when I had to update my Mac's OS and I wanted to be able to open older files.  The bane of updating an OS is the risk that some older app that you still need or use will "break" under the new OS.   At that point, you have to hope that the original developer of that now broker app will have updated it to run on the new OS.
I had that situation with EchoMac... a compatible version of EchoLink.

If you do not have Microsoft Word, then you should download and install 
LibreOffice.  It is a full Office suite that is quite similar to 
Microsoft Office.  And it is free to use.  It will read any file 
produced by MS Office, and it also exports to .pdf format.
