------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Feb 11 22:15:25 +0000 2008 ------- When exporting a formatted spreadsheet (containing styles, formulas, etc.) from Microsoft Excel 2000 in XML Spreadsheet format, the default file extension for the resulting XML Spreadsheet document is "xml". But when the file extension for the exported document is manually changed back to "xls", Calc attempts to perform a text import of the XML Spreadsheet file. The correct way to render an XML Spreadsheet document saved with an "xls" extension is to render the document as an XML Spreadsheet, not to attempt a text import of the file. This behavior is already built into Excel, and should be implemented in Calc, as the user community already expects it. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
