You can open an existing spreadsheet from the Start Center or from
any component of OOo.

Each of these options displays the Open dialog, where you can locate
the spreadsheet that you want to open.
Tip
You can also use the Recent Documents list to open a
spreadsheet. This list is located on the File menu, directly
below Open. The list displays the last 10 files that were opened
in any of the OOo components.
Opening CSV files
Comma-separated-values (CSV) files are text files that contain the cell
contents of a single sheet. Each line in a CSV file represents a row in a
spreadsheet. Commas, semicolons, or other characters are used to
separate the cells. Text is put in quotation marks, numbers are written
without quotation marks.
To open a CSV file in Calc:
1) Choose File > Open.
2) Locate the CSV file that you want to open.
3) If the file has a *.csv extension, select the file and click Open.
4) If the file has another extension (for example, *.txt), select the
file, select Text CSV in the File type box (scroll down into the
spreadsheet section to find it) and then click Open.
5) On the Text Import dialog (Figure 101), select the Separator
options to divide the text in the file into columns.
