When excel files have invalid formulas/data, this can cause
xlsx2csvto produce an error like the following below (traceback truncated to only include thexlsx2csverrors):This occurs with invalid formulas like
#N/Aand#VALUE!. Becausexlsx2csvdoesn't know how to handle these, this breaks the conversion. This PR aims to fix these issues by removing the faulty data instead of trying to force a conversion onto it when an invalid formula is encountered.
