1) Open the attached spreadsheet document ("text_to_column_tab.ods")
2) Select cells A1:A2
3) Data > Text to Columns
The default delimiter setting (tab) fails to separate the text into columns; the
tab characters embedded in the cell text are apparently not recognized.
Granted, it's unusual in Calc to have text with embedded tabs, but this should
still work. It's fairly strange to have the dialog preview display the tabs and
yet fail to act on them.
Excel handles this as expected.
