MS-Windows only.
This bug was found by a user on version 2.0.3
It is still valid on OOo 2.4 RC2
Steps to reproduce:
This Basic code searches the first file with extension jpg:
Sub Main
print Dir("c:\Docs OpenOffice\*.jpg", 0)
End Sub
put in the directory a jpeg image, e.g. : britney.jpg
The macro prints this filename.
Rename the file as : britney.JPG
run again the macro : nothing is found.
On MS-Windows, filenames (and paths) are case insensitive, Dir() function
should have
found it.
Indeed Dir() finds it correctly on OpenOffice.org 1.1.5.
This is a nasty bug because you may skip files without knowing. And there is no
simple workaround.
