    _______________________________________________________

Details:

Tested with LibreOffice Calc Version: 4.3.3.2
Build-ID: 430m0(Build:2) on Debian Jessie.

Create "myfile.xlsx" with LibreOffice, add "12345" to A1. Close LibreOffice,
run in Octave


pkg load io
xlswrite ("myfile.xlsx", {"foobar"}, 1, "B2", 'OCT')


Which returns 1 but the string "foobar" isn't visible when openend with
LibreOffice. Adding integers with xlswrite works. Also if "myfile.xlsx"
initially was created with xlswrite.
