The file is created with OpenOffice 2.4 and works. I downloaded it and 
could successfully open the file.

Generating an excel version from my OpenOffice creates a non-fully 
working sheet. You can browse the Google docs version linked from 
http://base.thep.lu.se/wiki/DocBookSupport

There is no real need to use the sample directly simply create a file 
using your data following the sample.

You mean this one ?
http://base.thep.lu.se/attachment/wiki/DocBookSupport/batchimport_sample.ods?format=raw

It works for me (OpenOffice 2.3). Here you have an Excel file that was 
exported from the original OpenOffice Calc:

All the best,

[base] batchimport example spreadsheet seems corrupted

2008-11-19 Thread Micha Bayer
Hi,

I have been trying to look at the example file for the batch import but
it seems corrupted. I am trying to open it in OpenOffice 2.3.0 and the
file does load but then Calc instantly hangs.

Has anyone else had the same problem? More to the point, has anyone got
a version that works, or better still, an Excel version of it?

Cheers

Micha
