The problem appears when importing a word document in writer containing certain
types of data fields.

The import goes smoothly but if the file is saved within Oo, the page will loose
some formatting (such as color and cell text wrap).  That part happens whether
the file is saved back as .odf or .doc.

That issue was more severe in 3.0.1 (meaning it lost more formating than 3.1)
but is still present in 3.1.

The big issue however, is when such a file is saved back as as .doc and opened
in word, the file is corrupt and some of the data entered in fields is now
missing (such as checks and some typed in data).

This is reproductible every single time on every computer we have.  That has
also happened on more than one document.  We can't recreate those documents as
they are supplier supplied forms which have to be filled and returned exactly as
they are.  This is stopping our tests for roll out of Oo in our organization at
this point.

I've included the original Word document(minus logos and name) unaltered by
openoffice .  If you fill out the "supplier" section of the field and save it
back as a word document, it will be corrupted when trying to open it in word and
even using "open and repair" in word will not restore the lost informations
entered in some of the fields.

PS : This is the first time I submit an issue and I've searched the database to
no avail so please bare with me if something is not as it should.
