The problem is that both Writer and Calc accept .txt, according to the

prevent the .txt from going to Writer from File | Open even if the
Spreadsheets list of extensions has been selected.

There *is* a way, at least here with 3.3.3 (version details in
signature). If you pick the right file type (in the File -> Open file
picker), "Text CSV (*.csv;*.txt)" it opens in calc, no matter if the
name ends with .txt or with .csv.

I see the "Text CSV (*.csv;*.txt)" now.  When I checked the File |
Open ... dialog before, the scroll bar was off the right of my display
[;<).  That is *way* down there, huh?

It is. Well, it means LibO supports many formats.

But the list is really long, I wonder if someone is thinking about how
to make it easier to browse (if that's possible).
