Error opening a Quattro Pro WB2 file I find in several places, notably wiki.documentfoundation.org, the statement that “Calc 3” in both OpenOffice and LibreOffice will open Quattro Pro WB2 files. Whenever I try to open one, I get an error: Read-error. Error in file structure while importing. Thinking perhaps an extension was needed, I searched the extensions catalog for a Quattro Pro extension but found none. When I reported the problem here: http://ask.libreoffice.org/question/4729/error-opening-a-quattro-pro-wb2-file/ I was directed to file a bug. Cheers, Edward
Please attach a sample document.
Created attachment 68464 [details] test case The attached file is the requested test case. I was able to strip the file to four simple elements: 3 cells and a password. The password is "14" (same as the file name). If I delete any of the three cells or the password then I am no longer able to reproduce the problem.
Reproduced in 3.5.7 and 3.6.3 on RFR 17 64 bit Another offices: Calligra Sheets tells "Encryption algorithm is closed" and Excel2007 tells "Unknown format". Where mentioned that it should work: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/DE/Doku/Allgemein/B_OpenDocument approximately middle of html page: Tabellen-Formate die geöffnet werden können Quattro Pro 6.0 (.wb2)
Does cause an error message when trying to open on OS X 10.8.4, LO 4.1.0.2.0.

Hello, the problem still exists in: Version: 5.4.0.2 Build ID: 2b906d450a44f2bbe506dcd22c51b3fa11dc65fd CPU threads: 4; OS: Mac OS X 10.12.6; UI render: default; Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); Calc: group Just for note, as I am adding support to wb1's files in libwps(DLP) and the encryption seems similar, this file contains a password structure: the zone 4b of size 20: - the first two bytes are a checksum of the password (which computed with the first part of libwps::encodeLotusPassword), - the 3rd and 4st bytes seems to be the password length(to be verified), - the last 16 bytes can be used to decrypt the files with QuattroParser::decodeStream.

Must be fixed in LibreOffice 6.2: now it asks for a password, and opens the file if the user gives a password(*). (*) the encryption is weak and these files are very old, so if the password is not valid, I added a function in the filter to retrieve the real password which must work if the password has less than 15 characters (see LotusParser::retrievePasswordKeys in libwps Lotus.cpp).
Yep I can open attachment 68464 [details] now
I'm the one who filed the original bug report. I have checked some real-world documents. I confirm that I can no longer reproduce the problem. Thanks!
