LibreOffice Calc - Protected Cells in XLS resulting in unmodifiable document in Linux
I received a document from work the other day, which I am required to fill out and return to them. It's a XLS file, created on Windows using MS Office. When I opened it on my version of LibreOffice Calc on my Linux box, I noticed that all of the fields in the document were protected. I thought this was odd. When I checked the same document on Windows with MS Office, only the cells which should have been protected were.
Is this a common issue other people are having, and is there a way to remedy it, as I'd prefer not to have to boot into Windows. Ever.
