Hi,

I see now, the file is not OK. I have not noticed that before.Thanks for
noticing that.

I think, however, that LO should not react by hanging for a long time, but
instead it should react in a meaningful way. Otherwise it looks like a bug in
LO

The best way how to deal with that would be to warn the user by a message, e.g.
 "Unbalanced delimiter on line XXX" and exit - so that he or she knows that the
data is corrupt. 

A not so good solution would be to ignore the problem, but still to start a new
record once line end is reached. This is the approach used in LO prior to 3.6
and in MSO. This look pretty, but the user doers not know that the data is
corrupt.

It would also be good to have a third option in text delimiter setting: None
