Description Bryce Nesbitt 2008-01-17 00:24:16 UTC 
While.xls is recognized as a spreadsheet by the file loading dialog,
I must select "show all files" to see a .XLS file.

Other information:
Microsoft Excel is not case sensitive in this way.

I can replicate this...
Comment 2 Bryce Nesbitt 2008-01-17 01:07:42 UTC 
Oh yes, I'm using KDE on SUSE 10.3.  That might matter, since it's a file dialog issue.
Comment 3 Morten Welinder 2008-06-18 01:52:14 UTC 
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
