Issue: Excel will remove a link to a file containing spaces from an xlsx file. Platforms: Linux Mint Debian Edition Windows 7 32 bit Affected version: LibreOfficeDev 5.0.0.0.beta1 LibreOfficeDev Build ID: 0a16c3dda4150008d9be6f24cbd15ac198d116d3 Steps to reproduce 1. Create a Calc Spreadsheet on a USB drive (FAT 32) 2. Insert a hyperlink by first opening the relevant menu (Ctrl-K) and go to "Document" 3. In "Path" select a file with spaces in its name on your USB drive 4. Save the file to "test.xlsx" (it has to be "Save" not "Save as" because the latter doesn't seem to convert absolute paths to relative ones) 5. Open test.xlsx using Excel 14.0.7149.5000 on Windows 7 Excel complains that the contents of the sheet are unreadable and offers to repair the document. After approving that, Excel reports that the hyperlink was removed. Thanks in advance
I can not confirm with Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 1a8e9dae32997bf199dbd192058fcd8f187ddc49 TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@46-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2015-05-31_03:57:11 path: /tmp/BOOKMARK TEST.odt Seems to be fixed, please test with newer version. Thank you http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/
Thank you very much raal for looking into it. I retried it with 5.1. Links with spaces inside still don't work for me in XLSX files. I realized that the link is only removed by Excel after Calc converted the absolute path to a relative one. This happens when I open an XLSX that contains a link with Calc, make a change such as editing some cell, and then save it. After the path is now relative, the linked file won't open anymore in Calc and causes the described error message including the removal of the link when the XLSX is opened with Excel. Thanks in advance, Matthias

Could you attach test xlxs file?
