------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Dec 6 09:15:14 -0800 2006 ------- I have a series of data files generated by other software. They variously have .txt, .dat and .csv extensions. Within the oocalc user interface, I have to specify, *every time* that I want to open the .dat and .txt file in oocalc and not in oowriter. This is a pain, especially when there are a lot of files to import and process. In fact, this makes OOo almost unusable for me. To add insult to injury, the user interface for selecting that the file should be opened in calc is quite bad from a usability perspective. Selecting an item from a very long dropdown list is probably the least user-friendly way of doing this. Perhap you can create a new menu item "Open a file in this component"? Or a checkbox on the Open dialogue box saying "Open the file in the same component"? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
