    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Not sure how simple or complex your Excel is.

    Are you able to manually do a File->SaveAs of the Excel and from the available list select Xml?

     

    If yes, then you can try the below action in PAD.

    Please take a backup of your Excel before trying anything as it might corrupt your Excel.
