------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jan 13 05:36:08 -0800 2006 ------- Since OOo2.0.1, MS Word files with embedded MS Word files no longer crash OOo when they are opened (see issue #45333). This has exposed a significant regression with respect to OOo 1.1.4 which makes embedded text documents (specifically MS Word files) un-usable in practice. In OOo 1.1.4, an embedded MS Word file is represented with an icon. Double clicking on the icon opens the embedded file in a new window. This is the same behaviour as MS Office 2000. In OOo 2.0.1, an embedded MS Word file is represented by what looks like the top left of the document. Double clicking on representation opens the embedded file in the same window as the outer/containing document. The view on the embedded file has the same size as the representation (i.e. very small). There does not seem to be any way to open the embedded file in a new window as was the default with OOo 1.1.4. While opening the embedded file in the same window as the outer/containing document may be reasonable for small fragments of text, it is **totally** unreasonable when the embedded file is a 10 page document. Please revert to the OOo 1.1.4 behaviour or at least make it possible to obtain the OOo 1.1.4 behaviour. This problem description is specific to text documents because I receive a lot of these. I don't receive documents with embedded spreadsheets although I guess the problem would be the same. It must be possible to open a substantial embedded spreadsheet in a new window. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
