Description frob 2001-07-25 19:54:29 UTC 
File->Import->[Text File Import (customizable)]-> (Select file attached to
bug-report) ->[Next] -> [Next] -> (Set format to '@') -> Finish

Now look at row 130 and bellow.

If one repeat it with LANG<>C (i tested with LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R),
then result is much worse.

Simple problem.  The display is only parsing the first 128 rows and as such is only applying the seleted format to those lines.  Hence the later numbers are treated as numbers not strings.  Two solutions present themselves.

1) Apply format to 0..SHEET_MAX_ROWS-1
2) App a flag to get the row counter to ignore the parse limit.

Thanks for reporting, fixed in CVS.
