Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 99789
WW8: table cells in footer not merged anymore after export
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:43:11 UTC
I created a file with a table and formatted elements in each cell. I saved it as an OpenOffice file - no problem. I saved it as a Word 97/2000 file, closed it, opened again in OO 3.0.1, all data gone, table is reduced to one column. I opened the OpenOffice version again, saved it as a Word 95 file, closed the file, opened it again in OO 3.0.1, the table information is gone, but most of the data is there.
This feature worked well in version 2.4.1
akhorvash, please provide the file in .odt format or specify exact steps.
Created attachment 60627 [details] Sample Document - save as Word format
OpenOffice Writer document attached. Open the file and save it as a Word 97/2000/XP or as a Word 95 or Word 6.0 format. None work.
Confirming with OOO310m1 - as described. Might be dup of http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=99451
It looks, that both -issue 99024 and issue 99451- are responsible for this problem. Both are fixed in CWS hb19 which will be integrated soon in OOO310 branch. However, a problem with the table in the footer remains. MRU->HBRINKM: export attached odt to WW8 and reopen -> the cells on the right of the footer are not merged anymore.
Worked good in 3.0 - broke in 3.0.1.
