Hello

The file format is probably invalid. Excel 2007 files (*.xlsx) can't be opened, as those files are not supported yet.

what about Excel 95 or Excel 4 workbook files?
you can reproduce this easily by saving a new Excel 95 file from Excel 2003 use a TFileStream to open the file then try to use XLSReadWriteII.LoadFromStream
