Excel import: combining characters in sheet names not handled
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:13:53 UTC
When Calc loads an Excel spreadsheet that has a sheet name in Thai, all combining characters in the sheet name are shown as underscores.

I don't think this is a duplicate of issue 6732 because Calc normally handles Thai combining characters in sheet names just fine. It's only on import from Excel that it has problems. (Note that Thai base characters are handled fine on import from Excel.) It's quite different from the problem with dash in sheet names. I would say this is clearly a defect not an enhancement. I just do not see how it can be described as "sheet names limited by DOS naming convention".
