Description Unknown 2003-02-20 22:35:46 UTC
When I try to save the attached .sxc as .xls Calc hangs and doesn't react to 
anything (no redraw anymore) and a huge .tmp file is produced (>90 MB). 
Reproducable with 1.0 and 1.0.2.

There are all cells hard-formatted with font size 10pt -- except the
cells in the very last column. This causes the export filter to export
each and every cell in the range A1:IU31939 -- in all sheets.

The reason may be: First the entire sheet was selected, then
hard-formatted with a font size. After that, a column has been
deleted. This inserts a default formatted column at the end of the sheet.

The problem: the Excel export filter thinks the cells in the last
column are the row default, and therefore exports all other cells in
the row, because they are different from the last cell. This is a
known problem, see issue 194.

Workaround: In all sheets:
- select the columns Q:IV, delete these columns (entire columns, not
the cells)
- select the rows 25:32000, delete these rows (entire rows, not the cells)
This delets the hard formatting.

I will attach a copy of your original file, without the redundant
formatting, to this bug. If you export this file to Excel, it will
take ~45kByte.
