Description miltoncito 2011-01-06 21:33:44 UTC 
When i export a spreadshet (excel or calc file) from a report from a propietary 
software, this file cannot be open in Open Office, Calc hang up and never opens 
the file, but when i open with MS Office it opens normally. Then when i open 
first with Ms Office and i save the file, open office is able to open it.

I send a example of a file. Thanks for the help.

If I try to open the document with a DEV300m95 non-pro build I get error messages:
Error: ScfProgressBar::ProgressAbs -segment overflow From File
C:/DEV300m95my/sc/source/filter/ftools/fprogressbar.cxx at Line 194
until the debug window becomes unresponsive and has to be killed via task manager.

I have then opened and saved the document with Excel2007 without any changes.
Opening that file I get the error:
Error: XclAddressConverterBase::XclAddressConverterBase - invalid max row From
File C:/DEV300m95my/sc/source/filter/excel/xladdress.cxx at Line 142
But then this file opens.
