My Aunt send me the frog test is where you have to move 3 green and 3 brown frogs to the other side of the screen by hopping on the lillypads and over the other frogs. You do this by clicking on the frogs, but when I go to click on the frogs, they don't do anything. the frogs move in Excel and not in Neo Office.

Yes, it is an actual .xls file.

What is supposed to is when you click on the little frog and it is supposed to hop to the next lilly pad. It is a puzzle.

I think it relies on something specific to the Windows version of Office.

Someone sent this same thing to me and it wouldn't work on Excel: Mac but it ran fine under Office 2003 on my PC.

It's most likely some sort of VB macro, which I don't believe is supported in NeoOffice. For that matter, it probably wouldn't work in Mac:Office either.
