That's it Jonathan.
Fixed field length is evidently used very rarely, hence not not a lot of effort in supporting it.
Each row of the import file is 884 characters, comprising 82 columns. Bringing it into Calc consists of setting each of the 82 column dividers manually.
Sorry to jump in in the middle here, but why can't you select all of the columns and the adjust the column width. If they are all the same width, this should work shouldn't it?
