Package: openoffice.org
Version: 2.0.4-7
Severity: important

I receive excel spreadsheets regularly. When I try to open these files,
OOo writer is started, and the spreadsheet is included in a new document
as a table.

I don't find any place in the open dialog where I could say that I want
the file to be opened in calc.

This way I simply cannot use these files.

It doesn't happen to all the .xls files, only the ones I have received.
So probably there is something special in the files, that makes OOo open
them in writer.
But I don't really care about what OOo thinks, I want to be able to say
that this file should open here.

Regards,
Gabor
