    What actually changes

    ODS and XLSX are not the same picture in two wrappers.

    The OpenDocument workbook is rewritten as OOXML. Sheets, formulas, cell formatting and charts map across, and Excel opens it without a compatibility prompt.

    Worth knowing first

    Function names differ between the two formats in a handful of places, and array formula behaviour is not identical. Anything using regular expressions in lookups, or LibreOffice-only functions, breaks and shows as an error rather than converting.

    Questions

    ODS to XLSX, answered

    Can Excel open ODS directly?

    Yes, since Office 2010, but corporate installs sometimes block it and the support has rough edges around charts.

    Do pivot tables survive?

    The resulting table does. The pivot definition itself often does not, so it may need rebuilding.

    How to convert ODS to XLSX

    Add your files

    Drop one ODS or two hundred. Batch conversion is not a paid feature here.

    02

    Choose your settings

    Excel Workbook is lossless, so nothing is thrown away in the conversion.

    03

    Download

    Converted and deleted the moment it finishes. Never written to permanent storage.
