Issue ID: 126821
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: text import wizard fails to detect currency ($) by
default
Product: Calc
Version: 4.1.0
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 (lowest)
Component: open-import
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
The text import wizard fails to detect currency ($ entries) by default.
It is not obvious that plain text containing two or more dollar entries e.g.
"$1000\n$2000" can't be imported into an OO calc spreadsheet and their format
properly detected (Currency/Number) without selecting "Detect special numbers".
When importing such text by default (ie without selecting "Detect special
numbers"), the text is interpreted by the import wizard as "Number" and a text
delimiter is applied (ie "`$1000", "`$2000"). This makes it a) confusing for a
standard user, and b) very difficult to change to the correct format.
Note I have added this issue based on past experience and comment #3 by dcl12
