Unlike a CSV file, XPT files can't be opened by Excel or Libre Office.  I
used the R program with very specific instructions and finally got that
program to convert the XPT file to a CSV file.  Then I was able to open the
CSV file in Libre Office.  Someone should develop a way to read XPT files
in eXist so they don't have to use the R program.
