[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #64366] [Octave Packages] (io) / VM : xlswrite errors in certain cases

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #12, bug #64366 (project octave):


> Could this bug depends on interface being used? If Windows has Excel
installed, does xlswrite default to activeX? 

Yes, and yes it should - provided the OF windows package has also been
loaded.
Actually the I/O interface preference order, that apart from available
external & "activated" support SW also depends on file type, is defined in
xlsopen.m in an if-elseif block starting at L.334.
For .xlsx it is COM (ActiveX) / Apache POI / UNO (LibreOffice) / OCT (native
Octave).
