What do you mean exactly by "The line end character is not recognised correctly by Windows XP" ? When exporting a sheet to csv format, you can edit the parameters of the filter. Best regards. JBF Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDINFO status with no change for at least 6 months. Please provide the requested information as soon as possible and mark the bug as UNCONFIRMED. Due to regular bug tracker maintenance, if the bug is still in NEEDINFO status with no change in 30 days the QA team will close the bug as INVALID due to lack of needed information. For more information about our NEEDINFO policy please read the wiki located here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FDO/NEEDINFO If you have already provided the requested information, please mark the bug as UNCONFIRMED so that the QA team knows that the bug is ready to be confirmed. Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone! Warm Regards, QA Team Dear Bug Submitter, Please read this message in its entirety before proceeding. Your bug report is being closed as INVALID due to inactivity and a lack of information which is needed in order to accurately reproduce and confirm the problem. We encourage you to retest your bug against the latest release. If the issue is still present in the latest stable release, we need the following information (please ignore any that you've already provided): a) Provide details of your system including your operating system and the latest version of LibreOffice that you have confirmed the bug to be present b) Provide easy to reproduce steps – the simpler the better c) Provide any test case(s) which will help us confirm the problem d) Provide screenshots of the problem if you think it might help e) Read all comments and provide any requested information Once all of this is done, please set the bug back to UNCONFIRMED and we will attempt to reproduce the issue. Please do not: a) respond via email b) update the version field in the bug or any of the other details on the top section of FDO The line separator for CSV is platform-dependent and cannot be changed. @Urmas - so does that mean NOTABUG, WONTFIX, or....confirmed? Moving to UNCONFIRMED for now as there is no independent confirmation from QA. Thanks all. There is not problem with Calc, I can export data to .csv in Linux and import this file in Calc on windows. But I can imagine the problem with data interchange with other programs on windows. For example open this .csv file in notepad shows all data in one row. Setting as enhancement - add option to CSV Filter setting to define end of line LF/CRLF I have the same problem, except I need to export to CSV with CR line endings so please include this option in the option list (CR / LF / CRLF) Reimporting an exported .csv file which has internal line breaks (\lf only) within a cell fails. Every new internal section of a cell will be put into a new column. Combining the rotten legacies of \cr and \lf in .csv was not a good idea. Give users a choice. I would love a .csv output option for internal linebreak: \vt chr(11) besides the useless \lf chr(10) Forgot to add: exporting \vt chr(11) for an internal line break is the right thing to export to .csv ; .csv import is flawless then. *** Bug 116908 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Hi, I want to warm up this old problem: e.g. when you want to convert a calc address table into vcard format you need csv export in only one column. The cell separator should be CR/LF for this and that seems to be not possible to enter. |
