Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 100989
Calc generates extra blank columns when opening Excel 2003 XML files

I have an application that uses Eclipse BIRT 2.3.2 to generate reports. The reports are generated using Excel 2003 XML file format. When I open the file in Excel, everything is fine. The same file on Calc appears with one blank column between every column of the report, so if I have 3 columns Calc shows 5 columns, two blanks and three with data.
Created attachment 61491 [details] Small file that shows the problem. Please open in both Excel (2003 and up) and Calc to see the problem.
Reproducible. The attached document shows two columns (A,B) when opened in Excel2007. It shows these columns in A and C and an additional, empty column between them in OOoDEV300m44.
