--- Comment #2 from Marcel Samek <[email protected]> --- Hi Cor, Thanks for the quick response, but your answer does not make sense to me. Yes, you are correct, the formatting on the pasted data is Number/Default - if that was simply the default behavior I would have no problem with that. However, when I did the paste, Calc popped up a panel that specifically asked me what type the columns were and I specified that the column was text. I did not ask for this panel - Calc chose to pop it up when I did the paste. So, if Calc is going to pop up a panel that asks me what type the column is, and then chooses to ignore my input, that looks, smells, and tastes like a bug. Either Calc should not have the option to specify the column format on the import panel, or it should not ignore it. Either way, something needs to change.
