Copying the report from dupe 114536, to try to increase priority of this bug, as
a "simple" feature could help OOo conquest the heart of a very important group.
This might look for developers a low profile feature, that nobody needs, but its
"the" feature that is blocking many migrations:


I work every few month with several journalists and one thing they always
complain every time i manage for then to test openoffice is the openoffice word
count is too basic. Please remember that journalists have limits for
words/characters for their articles and this is a major feature for then.

by talking with then, i figure that a status bar or a special toolbar with the
word count stats. Maybe the status bar should have a selected text
character/word count (similar to the selected cells SUM in calc) and a new
toolbar with all the word count statistics, so people could customize the
toolbars with the stats they want... update it manually or every X
seconds/minutes or even if the user is idle 

this is a feature that must be included in the main openoffice (even if not
enable by default if you want), as most journalists are too lazy (and most of
the time, without enough knowledge) to search and install extensions when they
have MSoffice ready to be used.

this feature is more important than you might imagine, as journalist make
reviews, express opinions, generate a free and important publicity. Even if the
journalist is not a tech one, they show co-workers and friends their tools, so
it they are happy, other might try it. Managing to conqueror the heart of a
journalist is more valuable than most users, just suppressed by CEO and CTO 
users.

This is a simple feature that might do the difference for this target group (and
a big bonus for all other that need word count)

thanks

Reopenning...

On the test case, i open OOo, i click on the import, choose the file, click on
the "select all" cell (top left corner cell) and then right click on any cell
and select "text" and press OK, the file is imported, but when i scroll down i
see the F84 cell as date when all others are text.

*BUT IF* in the import i scroll down the whole preview, where i can preview the
future F84 cell, i see the correct value in there (the 27.11) and after import
calc keeps the correct format!!

so this bug only shows if the user don't preview the value... maybe this is why
if i remove one more line from the original csv file, OOo imports the file fine.

as almost all users of import will not scroll down in the preview, this bug
might show up several times, and as discoleo said, users might not see the bad
import and blindly work over and take a long time (if ever) to find the problem.

i can reproduce this problem without any problem and i can try to reduce the
test case if needed

I tried to import a file as csv and used the standard and when the file was
imported, the file contained several fields as date, other as text... so i tried
to enforce the text import for all column, but still i saw several entries as 
date.

i tried to reduce the file to a text case that i will submit next. if i remove
one more line from the top, OOo 2.4.0 opens the file correctly. In the test case
the last line few lines show the problem, where several values are text and one
of then is set as date.

even worst, there isnt any easy fix for the wrong conversion, trying to convert
to text or number gives a totally different result, forcing the user to hand
correct the value

if i set that all column are text, OOo shouldn't try to do ANY detection of
format, so this is a bug

i'm using linux 64bits (slamd64 - slackware in 64bits), but OOo is 32bits, the
binary packaged downloaded from the OOo site. i dont have windows, so i cant
test in another OS
