Hi,
Thanks, almost there - the syntax you suggested ( soffice -calc <file> )
works.
But for a .csv file it pops the conversion window asking how file is
delimited.
Can this be bypassed? (trying to keep things working as they use to).
Starting file with excel (using .xls extension even though file only had tab
delimited data) it would automatically do the conversion.
Starting Calc with .xls extension that only holds a tab delimited file opens
in word processor.
Thanks for your help,
