** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: openoffice.org
  
  Open Office hung using 95% processor capacity on trying to open a file
  using tabs and commas as horizontal separators, as a  spreadsheet. The
- progress bar on the bottom stuck part way across with"adapt row height".
- I had previously successfully done this, but had saved  the file as open
- document spreadsheet, then changed the source file and tried to re-open
- it with the new data
+ progress bar on the bottom stuck part way across with "Adapt row
+ height". I had previously successfully done this, but had saved  the
+ file as open document spreadsheet, then changed the source file and
+ tried to re-open it with the new data.
+ 
+ I have noticed that the data in the original file that worked was numeric, 
whereas the second time it was a polar plot which used data in this format:
+ 1.00000e+009  (-4.01155e+001dB,-1.41315e+002°)        
(4.01155e+001dB,1.41315e+002°)
+ This would, no doubt, be taken as text rather than numeric data. But it 
shouldn't cause it to hang!
