Somthings odd about the xls itself. I opened sample.xls (8,555KB) in Excel 2003 and saved as a .xml and the file size is 233KB - that file opens fine in Excel and LO. From what I can tell, the xml file contains all of the same data that the xls does. That said, there is definitely an issue with LO:
Linux (same machine): LO 3.3.4 crashes and/or I have to kill LO 3.4.3 doesn't crash but loads the cpu to 92%+ and might as well kill OOo-dev 3.4.0 same as LO 3.4.3 OOo 3.3.0 same as LO 3.4.3 Windows XP (same virtual machine - only 1MB memory assigned): Excel 2003 opens, little slow on 'SHR' sheet, but usable LO 3.3.4 pretty much unusable & drives the cpu to 100% OOo-dev same as LO 3.3.4... Note: also saving to .ods (193.2KB) and trying to open in OOo or LO is pretty much unusable... drives the cpu to max & on one attempt took nearly 20 minutes to open (linux). Extracting the .ods shows the content.xml as 17.3MB (yes that's "MB", not "KB"). $ ls -l /home/gg/tempdir/G/OOotest/sample.ods_FILES total 17820 drwx------ 11 gg gg 4096 2011-09-25 16:30 Configurations2 -rw-r--r-- 1 gg gg 18183697 2011-09-25 21:53 content.xml drwx------ 2 gg gg 4096 2011-09-25 16:30 META-INF -rw-r--r-- 1 gg gg 808 2011-09-25 21:53 meta.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 gg gg 46 2011-09-25 21:53 mimetype -rw-r--r-- 1 gg gg 9834 2011-09-25 21:53 settings.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 gg gg 26830 2011-09-25 21:53 styles.xml drwx------ 2 gg gg 4096 2011-09-25 16:30 Thumbnails -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
