------- Additional comments from [email protected] Wed May 20 04:28:19 +0000 2009 ------- All of a sudden one fine day I tied to open a file, and on doing so it said that it got corrupt, and offered me an options to repair, I did so, and on lightly browsing through the file I thought it to be fine, in perfect state. So I overwrote the file with the original file which was corrupt; only to realise that the file which was originally 1.2 MB...or actually I think it was 2.8 MB changed to 991 kb. On opening the fixed document I realised that none of the OLE objects were getting edited and some of them were shown with Object<number>. The obvious culprit is the saving mechanism of OOo writer...which, undoubtedly needs to be improved on both speed and reliability at least in Linux cause I've heard this issue many time on various Linux distributions and specially with large documents (20 pages onwards). I'm attaching the recovered file (I don't have the original one, it was overwritten. The file has been modified cause of confidential information in it, however I left all of the OLE objects. And yeah there was another calc file which got corrupt, it recovered without a problem. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
