If one open a word document with a SAVEDATE field to edit it with OpenOffice,
several ' characters are added in the field name when OpenOffice "Save as" word
97 .doc document.
Word original field name : {SAVEDATE\@"d/MM/yy"}
OpenOffice converted field name is : {SAVEDATE\@"'d/'MM'/yy'"}
This happens with french language both in OpenOffice and Word. I have not
checked with english.
I hope this will help to solve this annoying problem when one needs to exchange
documents with the "word" people (they are many).
Workarounds such as reinsert the field or edit the field name directly to remove
the ' characters work but it is necessary to have a word licence to edit the
document. This is an extra work easily forgotten and not very practical.
