I've just used Graphisoft's ArchiCAD 10 to export a tab separated
file with dimension data for all doors and windows in a building
project. In Finder, I changed the .tab to .csv and used OOo 2.0 to
open the file, which took me to the Text Import panel, where I
specified all columns to be 'Standard'. In the Preview pane, I can
see all data showing properly as numbers. For example, for "Door sill
height" and "Door head height" I get the values as e.g. "0.0000" and
"3.0000".
I click on OK, and when the file is finished opening I see that the
columns are not exactly fine: Zero values still show as "0.0000", but
non-zero values have turned into dates: 3.0000 becomes "01/03/00".
Every time.
Any advice? Many thanks, as always.
