The spreadsheet can -look- like the data is jumbled when in fact it isn't if the column widths aren't uniform, which in some programs they often aren't immediately upon an import like that.  They -look- jumbled to me in OO as well, but then I go through and adjust column widths and its peachy.

Without a sample of what is wrong, or a better description of the bug,
I have to assume that the original reporter either wants to come up to
3.8.8 or apply 1f4fa271b9e9c78104257f729f3046f9c30694e0 which fixes a
bug where the column headers and column bodies might not be in sync.
