Unforunately, you lose all formatting information. The spreadsheet in question is basically a form so it needs to be in its original formatting. That being said, it is a simple form. I'll have to try removing the graphic. I didn't think of it until you mentioned it, but it might be a sore spot. Still the graphic does get displayed in that milisecond when the whole spreadsheet is on the screen before the type-1 error raises its ugly head.
So I suppose that the next move would be to remove "features" one by one until the spreadsheet imports correctly. It would be interesting to see which of the features are causing the crash.
