            Bug ID: 137015
           Summary: FILEOPEN MS Excel 2003 XML fails when header includes
                    <?xml version="1.0"?>
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.5.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

An attempt to open an MS Excel 2003 XML format file that includes the xml
version tag <?xml version="1.0"?> on the first line fails, and an attempt to
import the file as text is made. Alternatively,

$soffice --headless --infilter="MS Excel 2003 XML" --convert-to ods file.xls
Entity: line 1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
<?xml version="1.0"?>
   ^
Error: source file could not be loaded

When the first line is deleted from the file, it opens correctly.

An example of this kind of file can be dowloaded from
