Bug ID: 117494
Summary: 16K columns insted of 1K columns
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Microsoft Excel is able to write spreadsheet files having 16K columns.
LibreOffice Calc is able to read spreadsheet files having 1K only. As a result,
some spreadsheet files created by Microsoft Excel cannot be edited using
LibreOffice Calc. It is an unrealistic option to ask people to not use more
than 1K columns as Microsoft Excel still is the dominant competitor. So it
would be good if LibreOffice is extended to support the missing 15K of columns.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Using Microsoft Excel create a spreadsheet file having more than 1.024
colums.
2. Open the same file in LibreOffice calc.
3. Try to edit the 1.025th or 1.025th column.
Actual Results:
The columns do not exist in LibreOffice calc.
Expected Results:
The columns exist in LibreOffice calc.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
The problem is not only files created by Microsoft Excel but also simple CSV
files written by third party software (no spreadsheet applications) which do
not know about any limitation of the number of accessible columns.
