Not to the best of my knowledge. I have dealt with reading and writing
a variety of legacy Excel documents of different versions, from 97 to
2003, and so far this algorithm has been used consistently across these
versions. Daniel Rentz of Sun, who is their Excel file format guru,
even mentions that the same hash algorithm was used in Excel 95.
