title: How do I convert Excel OpenXML shared strings to inline strings?
body: <p>I have a large spreadsheet in Excel 2007 OpenXML format that I want to manipulate in xml programmatically. Excel saves it using the shared strings method which, while more efficient, complicates the process. Does anyone know if there is an option buried in Excel to save using inline strings, or maybe a utility already build to place all the strings back inline within the sheet.xml again? Haven't had much luck googling and I'd rather use an existing solution rather than building my own converter if possible. Thanks.</p>
