# Office 2003 SpreadsheetML Format

Files are flat XML.

## XML Schemas

They are normally distributed in `Office2003XMLSchema.exe`.  The linked schemas
were extracted from the package with MD5 sum `e967500ef68df1e8ef86b493304b5157`.

Each XSD is governed by a license which can be found near the top of the file.

There is a slight conflict between the Word and Spreadsheet `office.xsd` that
specifically applies to the version number pattern:
