too many characters in zt2009? #8

Open AimeRankin opened 8 years ago

AimeRankin commented 8 years ago

Hi @rossmounce

I'm back to work but LibreOffice doesn't seem to like the zt2009 file. When I try to open the file it says "The data could not be loaded completely because the maximum number of characters per cell was exceeded.". If I ignore this and open it anyway, a block appears at the end of the spreadsheet (same problem in zt2007 I think). Looking at the file, I can't seem to find any rows with an excessive amount of characters - any ideas?

I'll try and get this fixed today.

Seems to work for me. Maybe untick "quoted fields as text" ? If not, then please report the line/row number you can get down to (before the block) when it opens in LibreOffice Calc

Hm, it's still not opening properly for me. The last row in zt2009 is row 1587 - the study of appendages and postabdomen. In the case of GOS and NHM, a single female from a tube of type

The last row I can get to in zt2007 is row 1800 - ‘12000ft (equal to 3657m)’ and ‘30.VI.1924’ (BMNH); 1 male, CHINA, Tibet, Nyalam County, 4300m
