            Bug ID: 126932
           Summary: File opened from Calc opens in Writer instead.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.1.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ChristopherLeeUS at hotmail.com

Description:
Trying to open an IIF file in LibreOffice Calc. This is a column-based,
tab-separated file format used by financial software such as QuickBooks. When I
open the file in Calc, it just assumes that the file is text, and that I must
want it opened in Writer.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an IIF file in another application. (A sample file is attached to
this bug report.)
2. Open Calc.
3. Select File/Open in Calc, and choose the IIF file created in step 1.


Actual Results:
Writer starts, and opens the file as though it were a text file.


Expected Results:
The file should open in Calc, with the text input filter options dialog.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Renaming the file to have a "csv" extension causes Calc to open the file
properly.
