Open the textfile, when the 'Text import' wizzard is show do: 1) Select characterset 'Unicode (UTF-8)' 2) Separater options: 'separated by', check 'Tab' and 'Space', other options should not be checked. 3) at 'Text delimiter' type a space 4) klik 'OK' 5) Insert a column B, and fill it with a semi-colon ';' 6) Klik save-as, type a name, and check 'Edit filter settings' 7) The Export Text file' wizard should be shown. 8) Character set: 'Unicode (UTF-8)' 9) Field delimiter: space ' ' 10) Text delimiter: <empty> '' 11) checkboxes: only leave 'Save cell content as shown' checked..... Hi Luuk, I am afraid this doesn't work. I thought of it myself and also tried it at the beginning of my work. As I said, Terms consist of 2-5 words, so when using space as separator there is no way to insert a column (especially B) for the semicolon. Besides definitions are sometimes so long with so many spaces, that calc reports not being able to create enough columns for the whole content. The correct and professional way is what Brian suggested and I was looking for. Now I can use these expressions in the future too because the need for their usage occurs very often in mine kind of work. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Creating-a-dictionary-with-libreoffice-from-a-simple-TXT-file-tp4133988p4134042.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org 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
