diff for correct this iusse

Open Office Calc save numeric value in numeric column as text representation
and
add null chars right for column with.
Bat other applications save value as text and space chars left for column with.

For example:
Format: N, 3, 0
Value: 1
Calc saved value (hex): 31 00 00
Other Apps saved value (hex): 20 20 31

This inaccuracy does not affect the format of the readers implemented in C or
C++ but can break the implementation in other languages (Python, Ruby, Haskell)

Number column format descriptions:
  "Number stored as a string, right justified, and padded with blanks to the
width of the field."
  http://www.dbase.com/KnowledgeBase/int/db7_file_fmt.htm :

  "Numeric: . 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 + -, right justified, left blank filled"
