Reinhard,
Are you running the XLS directly from the designer or are you first
viewing it in the viewer and then exporting to xls?

I always get that warning and you can ignore it. The default Excel emitter doesn't write binary-format Excel files, it writes an interchange format that Microsoft publishes. Excel recognizes the file type when it parses the input but complains that it should have a different extension so it won't have to change gears. I don't know what the extension Microsoft expects is.
