In a previous version of NeoOffice, I found that the app had the ability to take a raw CSV file (like a PayPal history download) and produce a nice looking spreadsheet with data in their proper columns (as I believe Excel does). However, at some point that feature was either removed or not made the default behavior because in the current version the file just opens in word processor format. Anyone know what I'm talking about and if there's any way to get that functionality back?

How are you opening it? You can't go to the spreadsheet and use the open function to specifically bring it into the sheet?

I don't think it wanted to open it in the Spreadsheet module when I tried it last time, but I'll try again.

Just did that four times today, and it performed exactly as you'd like.
