I personally see this as a severe hindrance to Matlab.  It works great on Linux and MacOS but can only read and write Excel spreadsheets, and that rarely works properly without ActiveX.

Has anyone developed code to handle (read and write) Open Document Spreadsheets?  If not, Mathworks needs to get off their butts and get with the times.

Let me know what you guys think.
