Description gmules 2009-07-27 15:09:09 UTC
Failure to load cell with contents (Excel 2003 SP3)

     SUM(error_1)

where error_1 is named defined as

     =tmpstars.ppower_load!$L$7:$L$152

This causes a spreadsheet to break when loaded from Excel 2003 SP3 into OO Calc
3.0.1.  This happens only when the spreadsheet is loaded in Microsoft XML export
format (.XML) -- there are no problems with the same spreadsheet saved from
Excel in .XLS and then loaded into Calc.  

Thus the problem seems to be with loading Excel .XML files into OO Calc.

An actual spreadsheet is available illustrating the problem.
