data file

I have a raw text file with tab-delimited columns and a csv extension (attached here). The problem is:

- when I open the file in a text editor (geany), copy it all, and paste it into LO (choosing only tabs as delimiters), all is fine, BUT
- when I double-click the file and let LO open it with the assistant, when I then choose only tabs as delimiters, then LO 'invents' new data on the right margin; see the screenshot also provided, where LO invents data after

it <tab> 14

or

that <tab> 11

What's going on there?

Hi Kaesezeh, thanks for reporting.

I can't reproduce the issue with your options for import.

Try if resetting the user profile solves the issue.
