My first thought was this dead-simple solution: just pop up a prompt when opening CSVs. "Do you want to run formulas from this CSV file?" No need for complicated import wizards, just a simple yes/no.
- pbhjpbhj 9y ago"Yes/no/always/always for all files (see settings>blah>foo to change this option" would seem more user friendly to me, or is that too many options?
- matt_kantor 9y agoSure. I was just trying to come up with the simplest possible thing as a counter to the author's "it's too hard to fix vulnerabilities in existing spreadsheet programs" assertion. Microsoft and Google could probably bang out a dialog like that in a week if they were motivated.
