ODS (OpenDocument Spreadsheet) is an XML-based spreadsheet file format used by OpenOffice.

The commands ImportMatrix and ExportMatrix can read and write to the ODS format.

The general-purpose commands Import and Export also support this format.

The default output from Import for this format is a DataSeries, the individual elements of which are DataFrames corresponding to worksheets within the ODS spreadsheet.

With Maple 2016, the Import command applied to ODS files now produces DataSeries objects by default. To produce a table, use Import(...,output=table).
