            Bug ID: 139405
           Summary: FILESAVE XLSX Named range with name S not allowed in
                    Excel is saved to XLSX
           Product: LibreOffice

                OS: All

Created attachment 168667
  --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=168667&action=edit
Minimized version of attachment #168418

This is split off from bug #139163
There the ODS attachment #168418 has several named ranges, saving them to XLSX
makes Excel find invalid contents in the named ranges.
The cause seems to be the named range “S” which is not allowed in Excel, can
not even be created as new.
Removing only this one from the Manage names dialog makes the error go away.

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open attached file
    2. Save as XLSX, reopen in Excel

    3. For a counter-test open attachment #168418
    4. In the Manage Names dialog find and delete the named range “S”
    5. Save as XLSX, reopen in Excel -> no invalid contents error among named
ranges.

Actual results:
Excel finds invalid contents.

Expected results:
No invalid contents.

LibreOffice details:
Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ (x64)
Build ID: 96bafa464ebdbce3ef04bec9beae5e745bb37794
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 6.3 Build 9600; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
