Priority: medium
Bug ID: 68903
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: FILEOPEN: Files with names ending in .xls are opened
as Writer documents by LibreOffice 4.1.1
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Mac OS X (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.1.1 rc
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
On MacOSX 10.8.4, when I try to open a documents with suffix .xls, LibreOffice
4.1.1 opens it as a Writer documents, which of course is totally wrong.
Version 4.0.4 and 4.0.5 don't do this.
It's even weirder with files named "foo.csv.xls". Until version 4.1.1, these
would open as Calc documents and I would get the splash screen where I can
choose the column separator and text encoding and so forth. As of 4.1.1 I get
a new Writer document with the csv data lumped into it.
If I remove the 'xls' part, leaving 'foo.csv', then LO 4.1.1 will finally
realize it's a Calc document, and it will show me the dialog box for the
separator, encoding, etc. But bizarrely, the default text encoding is
Cyrillic, which is completely ridiculous (all my files are ASCII, and I have
the US English version of LibreOffice).
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.1.1.1 rc
