Re: [libreoffice-users] column limit in libreoffice 4.3.something

Try importing into Base as csv, pay particular attention formatting on 
this screen matches your csv.
During import keep an eye out for errors. Stop at error, look at last 
record imported in table. Using text editor, fix that or next record.
Delete Base database and re-iterate until no errors found.
When complete import occurs, copy table to Calc.

This works fairly well for finding import errors and copying from Base 
to Calc is usually a clean process.

Just ran my first Firebird test and it does import much fast than HSQL1.8

Yes, I did have problems importing a csv directly into Calc which showed 
non-english character set.

Hope this helps.
