What is the best way to open ods files in Excel 2003?
Is there some plug-in available? Should I use some convertor to xls? Or would it be best if I just used LibreOffice (or OpenOffice)?
The file I want to open shouldn't contain anything fancy, so I probably don't need a solution that understands every detail of the format.

Using OpenOffice is probably the easiest option IMO because there's no file format conversion necessary and OpenOffice is freely available.
There is a BSD licensed Microsoft Office 2003 plugin that is available, OpenXML/ODF Translator Add-in for Office. I don't have Microsoft Office so I'm unable to try it.
