mbayer->rainerbielefeld: Please re-read the description with more care! It
says very clearly that this error occurs only if you put both icons into
the TABLE DATA toolbar (it says so even in the summary), and not if you put
them into the Standard toolbar, as you did (your movie shows this).
I did a little comic strip with my German version of OOo, in order to make
it easier for you to reproduce. I hope you enjoy it...
1. Open the Writer module.
2. Open the Data Sources View (F4).
3. From a data source (like Bibliography), drag and drop a field (like
Author) into your document.
4. Now click on the small arrow at the right side of the Table Data toolbar
(not Standard toolbar, not Formatting toolbar, but TABLE DATA toolbar, as
it already says in the summary line).
5. From the menu, choose "Customize Toolbar..."
6. Be sure you are in the customizing dialogue of the Data Source Browser.
-> Item #1 in my screenshots.
7. Be sure you are customizing the Table Data toolbar
("Tabellenansicht" in the German localization)! -> #2
8. In the middle, scroll down: you see the "Mail Merge..."
("Seriendruck...") command, which is present by default in this toolbar.
Note this is "Mail Merge..." with three dots, which is supposed to call
the Mail Merge Wizard. -> #3
9. Click on "Add..." ("Hinzufügen..."). -> #4
10. In "Category" ("Bereich"), choose "Documents" ("Dokumente"). -> #5
11. In "Commands" ("Befehle"), choose "Mail Merge" ("Seriendruck"). Note
this is "Mail Merge" without dots, which is supposed to call the old
mail merge dialogue (without wizard). -> #6
12. Click on "Add" ("Hinzufügen"). -> #7
13. Leave the dialogue by clicking on "Close" ("Schließen").
14. You may now move down the just added command "Mail Merge"
("Seriendruck") using the arrows.
15. Note you have now two commands labelled "Mail Merge" ("Seriendruck") in
this toolbar: the one present by default, with three dots, which calls
the the mail merge wizard, -> #8 and the one just added, without dots,
which calls the old mail merge dialogue. -> #9
16. Close the dialoge by clicking on OK.
17. In your Writer window, you will now find two identical icons in the
Table Data toolbar, both with a tooltip saying "Mail Merge"
("Seriendruck"), but the one present by default and supposed to call the
wizard -> #10 (#8 in the customizing dialogue) and the other just added
and supposed to call the old mail merge dialogue -> #11 (#9 in the
customizing dialoge). Note the tooltip is just "Mail Merge"
("Seriendruck"), i.e. without dots, for both of them.
18. Now click first on the one, than on the other: either of them calls the
mail merge wizard.
19. For a cross-check, remove the "Mail Merge" icon from the Table Data
toolbar: redo steps 4 trough 7.
20. In the middle, scroll down and select the recently added command "Mail
Merge" ("Seriendruck") - the one without dots -> #12 (#9 in step 15).
21. Remove it by clicking on "Modify" ("Ändern"), and "Delete" ("Entfernen") in
the menu. -> #13
22. Leave the dialogue by clicking OK.
23. Now costomize you Standard toolbar: click on the small arrow at the
right end of the Standard toolbar. From the menu, choose "Customize
toolbar..."
24. Click on "Add..." ("Hinzufügen").
25. Like in steps 10 through 13, choose "Documents" ("Dokumente") in "Category"
("Bereich") -> #14, "Mail Merge" ("Seriendruck") in "Commands" ("Befehle")
-> #15, then click on "Add" ("Hinzufügen") -> #16, then on "Close"
("Schließen").
26. You now have the command "Mail Merge" ("Seriendruck") with no dots ->
#17 in the Standard toolbar -> #18 of the Writer module -> #19. Click
on OK in order to leave the customizing dialogue.
27. In your Writer window, you will now find two identical icons, both with
a tooltip saying "Mail Merge" ("Seriendruck"). Note the tooltip is just
"Mail Merge" ("Seriendruck"), i.e. without dots, for both of them.
28. The one of them, which you just added to the Standard toolbar, calls the
old mail merge dialogue -> #20 (#17 in the customizing dialogue). The
other, present in the Table Data toolbar by default, calls the mail
merge wizard. -> #21
The behaviour described in step 28 is OK, the behaviour described in step 18
is a defect: OOo writer should behave like in step 28 in both cases.
I can reproduce this error with Sun's OOo 2.1 (Build 9095) under Linux,
German localization, and with Novell's OOo 2.0.4 (2.0.4.7 - Build 9073)
under Linux, English and German localization (both).
