------- Additional comments from er...@openoffice.org Sat Mar 14 23:54:06 +0000 2009 ------- When writing SYLK files, in string data embedded double quotes are escaped by doubling them, semicolons are not escaped. It should be vice versa, all semicolons must be escaped by doubling them, embedded quotes stay as they are. In formula expressions, if the formula contained embedded semicolons, the expression was written as a quoted string, again doubling embedded quotes, but not semicolons. Instead, expressions must not be written as a quoted string, but semicolons escaped by doubling them. In the current implementation, Calc cannot correctly read data exported by/for Excel if the data contained double quotes (data is truncated) or semicolons (read in duplicated), nor can it produce such files correctly. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
