             Bug #: 51918
           Summary: : Copying from Base table to Spreadsheet alphabetizes
                    and misaligns headers

          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

Problem description: 

After reading how to export data from Base
(http://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Importing_and_Exporting_Data_in_Base), I
attempted to follow the steps to export a csv. I copied the data from a table
in my database and pasted it into a new spreadsheet, but the header row was
completely alphabetized (and thus misaligned), and each header name occupied
more than a single column.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Import an mdb or accdb file into Base
2. Open a table
3. Copy the table
4. Open a new spreadsheet
5. Paste into the spreadsheet

Current behavior:
Elements of the header row are alphabetized and occupy more than one column.
Thus they are not properly aligned with each column of data.

Expected behavior:
Each element of the header row is properly aligned with the corresponding data
column.

Platform (if different from the browser):
Windows 7
