When I embed a URL link for an entry in a Calc cell in an xls file which
includes the string '%2B', calc automatically converts this to its ASCII
character, '+'

In the case of the URL
<http://nedwww.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/nph-objsearch?objname=HIPASS+J0107%2B01&img_stamp=YES>
the server requires '%2B' and _not_ '+', a character it uses for other purposes.

As far as I can tell, it's not possible to get OO Calc to embed the unaltered
string.  To make this work I had to edit the xls file with a hex editor 
(Hexfiend).
