Thanks!

The .ods file type is Open Office spreadsheet. I use Open Office exclusively. It's the same file as the Excel one, only the original version. It takes a much longer time to load up, but I like OO better than MS Office.

The reason the Excel file is so big is that the functions on the display pages contain some seriously big arrays that are referenced sometimes multiple times in the same formula. They are intentionally overlarge so that I do not need to rewrite the formulas every time more stuff gets added into the game. Once was quite enough. Currently the number of things in the game (units, weapons and armor) could be doubled before I need to even consider looking at the formulas.
