Created attachment 64048 [details]
illustration of vanishing cell content in MS-made xlsm files

I have a .xlsm file is created in Microsoft Excel 2010 that has links to another .xlsm data file with has spaces in the worksheet tab.  When I open the same file in calc, the cell which had the link to the data file's tab with spaces in it comes up empty (the previously saved value is present; the formula/input field is empty).  I've tried this with both Windows and Ubuntu versions of LibreOffice with the same result.
Other info
Windows 7, LibreOffice version 3.5.2.2
Ubuntu 12.04, LibreOfficeversion 3.5.4.2

I've attached a small test file illustrating the problem
Comment 1 Rainer Bielefeld Retired 2012-07-10 05:29:57 UTC
More or less [Reproducible] with reporter's sample and Server Installation of  "LibreOffice 3.6.0.0.beta3  German UI/Locale [Build-ID: 3e2b862] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit):

Cells A3:C3 and A7:C7 contain links to contents in an other document, in C7 (linking to contents in a sheet with name "sheet 4"(?)) only a "=" instead of a complete link is visible. I will have to check how it looks with Excel.

Same with LibO 3.3.3, AOOo 3.4 and OOo 3.2.1RC1, seems inherited from OOo
