Bug ID: 89683
Summary: 'csv' Files are Opened as Text Documents if Writer is
the Active Window
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.4.0.3 release
Hardware: Other
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: filters and storage
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
A csv file is generally used to store structured data which can be represented
in a spreadsheet. Hence to my opinion csv files should be opened with Calc by
default. Only if a user explicitly selects “Text document” a csv file should be
opened with Writer. Currently a csv file is not opened as spreadsheet if a text
document is displayed in Writer.
Steps in order to reproduce the bug:
Case A:
(1) Start LO and create new text document.
(2) Open a file with the extension 'csv' from the menu: File > Open... The open
file dialogue of Windows is displayed. In the status line the filter “All files
(*.*)” is selected.
(3) Select “Spreadsheets (…;*.csv)” as filter.
(4) Select a csv file and click “Open”... The csv file is loaded as text
document. Expected: csv file should be opened as spreadsheet. In this case even
if the user explicitly selects the option spreadsheet the file is opened as
text document.
Case B:
(1) Start LO and create new text document.
(2) Open a file with the extension 'csv' from the menu: File > Open... The open
file dialogue of Windows is displayed. In the status line the filter “All files
(*.*)” is selected.
(3) Select a csv file and click “Open”. The csv file is loaded as text
document. Expected: csv file should be opened as spreadsheet by default even it
is opened from a text document.
Hint: This Bug has already been described in Bug 89312 together with other
problems.
