Description JorSol 2011-08-11 10:10:40 UTC
Created attachment 50138 [details]
import options dialog

A system where I work export files in CSV, but it exports some headers with an <br> tag like this:

"Prueba <br> test", "Exporting", "Numeros <br> aleatorios"
"Jadfg","Testadf adkjfsads",1456235
"aoijgn","Teoingaiun oinoiajdf",465357

Previusly LibreOffice (OpenOffice.org) open the files without problems, it shows the "import text" dialog. Now when I try to open the same file with a recent version of LibreOffice it shows "import options" dialog.

Nobody care about this? is just anoying that when I try to open a csv that previusly open fine, now it won't unless I remove the characters or open explicity like "CSV Text".

This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it
started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is
changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at:
