------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Mar 25 19:37:52 +0000 2007 ------- I find it remarkable that Open Office thinks that I don't know what I am doing, so when I directly instruct Calc to open a tab-delimited file, that is not a comma separated file (CSV), it launches Writer and puts it there. So apparently I need to change the file extension to CSV and then, in the text import dialog change it from comma delimited to tab delimited. I'm also told in the Open Office Help Forums that this topic comes up hundreds of times. So I gather that, given how old this "Issue" is, the developers are simply not listening to the users. This issue alone is reason enough for me not to recommend Open Office. It's not really unusual to import text files that are not "CSV" into a spreadsheet. I think that if you have to explain to a new user that they must work around the software when it overrides your explicit command, then the software needs some work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
