<pre>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)
