[Novalug] OO Frustration

[Kevin Chin]

Is your .txt file really a comma separated value file, but you named it as
.txt?  I opened a .txt file into Write without any problems.  I also
frequently open .csv files into Calc spreadsheets without any problems. If I
try to File | Open the .txt file from within Calc, it automatically opens
Write for me.

I should mention that I'm using OpenOffice.org, Novell Edition - and not the
standard OOo you get from www.openoffice.org.  However, for this specific
issue, I can't imagine it would make any difference.
