Description magrawal 2003-10-31 15:21:31 UTC
Yesterday I tried opening the uncompressed bz2 router files at this site:
http://archive.routeviews.org/oix-route-views/2003.10/
The files were very huge, about 600 MB and obviously too big for OO to handle. 
However, it would have been very useful for me if OO had opened just the initial 
say 10000 lines of the file, even if it could not open the entire file. Though I 
could get a preview of the first 32000 lines in Calc, it would have been 
preferable if Word could also give the user the choice of seeing just the first 
selectable number of lines

changed summary from
    "How about OO writer offering a preview of extremely large files"
to  "let Writer load fragments of adjustable size of large files"...

This means loading of fies like e.g. UltraEdit does 
(only the shown small pieces of a file)...

To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on
my owner to the owner "requirements".
