            Bug ID: 147176
           Summary: Double spaces stripped on import to Base
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.8.1 release
          Hardware: IA64 (Itanium)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
I’m importing data into Base via the following steps:

1. Export CSV file from another application
2. Open CSV file in Calc
3. Select contents in Calc, and Copy
4. Paste into a table in Base

It works fine, but  strings which originally had double spaces in them end up
having only a single space when stored in Base. (This is more than cosmetic in
my application, as these strings represent file names - so file lookups
subsequently fail.) The double spaces are still present when the data is viewed
in Calc, so appear to be being lost on the import to Base.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create record in Calc corresponding to a table schema in Base
2.In a string field, include a string with double spaces e.g. "a  string"
3.Select and copy record, select table in Base, paste
4.Examine record in table

Actual Results:
"a string"

Expected Results:
"a  string"


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
