Thanks for letting me know that. Explains why Gretl in turn was confusing me. Might saving it as a CSV file have been less problematic to 2025c. Though as I said, uploads of xlsx files to earlier versions of Gretl have always been straightforward.

Just FYI, jack did not convert your file. An xslx file is in fact a
ZIP archive containing several XML files. And this one contains
invisible junk outside the range of the visible data, which is
confusing gretl.
