            Bug ID: 124501
           Summary: XLS files opened with Calc have broken/malformed
                    hyperlinks
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.2.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: pointwolfe at gmail.com

Description:
XLS (Excel 97-2003) files containing hyperlinks in cells opened in Calc have
garbage characters (%00塹ᴻ䡿ⲯ嶂藄挧%00%00ꮥ%00) and are non-functional.

Subsequently saving the document back to XLS results in the file throwing
errors when attempting to open with MS Excel.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a file using MS Excel (any version) with cells containing hyperlinks
to web addresses or external files
2. Save as XLS (Excel 97-2003)
3. Open in LibreOffice Calc and examine link address

Actual Results:
Links are malformed and contain garbage characters (%00塹ᴻ䡿ⲯ嶂藄挧%00%00ꮥ%00)

Expected Results:
Links should work properly as they do in LibreOffice 6.1.5 as well as MS Excel


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
This behavior doesn't manifest itself in LibreOffice 6.1.5.2 (x64)
