ERROR: AssertionError: Malformed: couldn't find workbookPr node element in 'xl/workbook.xml'

ExcelReaders.jl is able to read the file.

I'm not able to share the file because it contains confidential information and resaving a smaller example does not reproduce the issue. Possibly the file is slightly malformed and libreoffice is fixing that?

Edit: Resaving the whole file takes ages in libreoffice, but does produce a file that XLSX can read.

The file contains three sheets. Sheets have parentheses in their names. Each sheet contains ~50k rows.

Oh, this is an easy one.

@cmcaine , please check if the XLSX.jl version on the master branch fixes your problem.

readxlsx now loads the sheet, but it takes literally minutes to do so.

When it does load, I can't access the data of most cells because they are "inlineStr". I've made a new issue for that, #123

Thanks very much for the rapid fix!
