Please see: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=79762 The file mentioned in that bug report is the same file. As you'll see, the file can be opened, it just takes a long time. Further, since 2005 the government of India has been distributing millions of OOo CD's: <quote> The government of India is distributing millions of CDs with OOo in local languages. 3,500,000 in Tamil, 3,500,000 in Hindi distributed in 2005. Other languages are coming: "The next stage of the project is to distribute CDs containing applications in Punjabi, a popular Indian language. This launch is due to happen in August and as Punjabi is also spoken in Pakistan, the project hopes to hold launch events in both countries." </quote> Resources: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Major_OpenOffice.org_Deployments http://news.zdnet.co.uk/software/0,1000000121,39205447,00.htm Hopefully the government of India will modify their huge & unwieldy spreadsheet... perhaps they can outsource an OOo rewrite :-) Please only reply to: users@openoffice.org cc'd to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
