           Summary: SYLK Ignores Character Limits and Encoding
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.4.2 release
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: scottmitchellsanders at gmail.com


The SYLK / Symbolic Link / Multiplan format has a character limit per cell of
255 characters. It is also encoded in ANSI.

LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org seem to ignore these, which is OK when used with
them but not when you try to open a LibreOffice or OpenOffice.org-exported SYLK
file in Excel or another SYLK app.
