Priority: medium
Bug ID: 80016
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Import text files with non-".csv" extention
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.3.3 release
Component: Spreadsheet
Product: LibreOffice
As far as I can see, it is impossible to import spread sheets from a text file
if the file has not a ".csv" extention.
I consider this a bug because plain text is not a format specific to
LibreOffice. Enforcing a certain file name conflicts with other application
which either create or use such files.
For example, I have many hundereds of files with ".PRN" extention, (which I did
not choose and which I need to keep to work with other software), and the only
way I found to open them in Calc is to create a copy with ".csv" extention.
What I wish is to be able to select *any* file, irrespective of its name and
extention, and to have the text import dialog shown.
