I've attached an ods that has this problem.  FYI the file name includes the 
string "DO_NOT_OPEN".  That's just a reminder (to me):  if this file is 
opened with a version of libreoffice calc prior to 7.0.1, the problem seems 
to get fixed.

Also, the 'new' version of google groups does not support attaching files.  
I reverted to the old version to send this.  If you don't get the file, let 
me know.

Thanks.
