How to convert XLS to ODS?
You can convert XLS to ODS with MConverter in three easy steps:
Choose XLS files from your device
At the top of this page, drag and drop your XLS's. You can also click to select XLS files using your operating system's file picker. Another method is to press the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V (⌘+V on Mac) to paste an XLS file you have copied to clipboard. Converting a folder with XLS files to ODS is also supported: simply paste or drag and drop it.
Click or tap on ODS from the list of target formats
Alternatively, you can use the search field to quickly find the format you need, whether it's ODS or something else.
Download your ODS files, after MConverter has finished processing them
There's an option to automatically download the converted ODS files, so you don't have to press the download icon for each ODS. You may see a share icon as well. Use it to directly share the ODS's with other apps.
