I've just tried to replicate your problem using winXP - OOo2.0 (to see if it could be the WM).. It works as it should. The .ods file (from the .csv) is correctly associated wtih OOo.
I would think, based on this, that it is a gnome problem. I would ask on the gnome list and if it turns out that it is not, you can always file an issue on www.openoffice.org. /paul On 12/8/05, Gordon Burgess-Parker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've just found a strange happening on Ubuntu 5.10 with Open Office 2 > (final - not the 1.9 that shipped with Ubuntu). > I have a csv file that I downloaded from a website.
