------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Jan 26 10:33:43 -0800 2005 ------- DDE links from spreadsheet into writer in instances where there are spaces in the path name do not register properly. For example the dde link in writer 'soffice C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\test.sxc Sheet1.A1' does not register properly. When inserting this link, it returns an error âError loading file ///C:Documents C:\Documents does not exist.â Putting quotation marks around the file name does not solve the problem. A workaround follows: Dismiss the error error message. Click on insert anyway. At this point, a small gray block will appear in the text document. Left click on the beginning of the gray block. Then right click at the beginning of the gray block. A dialogue with numerous choices, one of which is âfieldsâ should appear. If âfieldsâ does not appear, repeat the process as needed until âfieldsâ does appear. Select âfieldsâ. At this time, a dialogue entitled âEdit Linksâ appears. Select âmodifyâ. A new dialogue will come up. Ensure that âapplicationâ is soffice. Correct the file name so it reads C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\test.sxc. Correct the category so it reads Sheet1.A1. Select âOKâ At this time, select âupdateâ [for manual links] and then close. At this time, the link will appear properly in the document. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
