Hello, Gnumeric uses XML too for its native format, so this filter wouldn't be too hard to create. But I can't do it because I can only do some QBasic (I promise I will start to learn C++ within this week). KSpread should really be able to import and export Gnumeric-files because no one should say "free office-suits are incompatible". The same is for the others KOffice-applications. with regards, Max Moritz Sievers
