Description Douglas Reith 2008-06-17 03:36:13 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Exporting my file to CSV is mysteriously losing cell data.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Get the attached file
2. Open Gnumeric and select Save As
3. Select the CSV file format
4. Open the resulting file back up in Gnumeric and data is missing


Actual results:
Data from random cells is missing

Expected results:
The data is not missing - please! :)

Does this happen every time?
Yes, though maybe it has something to do with my data?

Other information:
I like Gnumeric, thank you muchly.
