------- Additional comments from [email protected] Sat Jan 30 11:26:47 +0000 2010 ------- This is actually a duplicate of Issue 95061, but I could not find a way of marking that issue as relevant to the current release candidate of OOo. I have been able to duplicate the behavior under OOo Calc 3.2 RC4 on Windows XP SP3 32-bit. What happens is: 1. Open an existing document and do some changes without saving. 2. Wait for the next auto-save of recovery information. 3. End the soffice.bin process with Windows Task Manager. 4. Open the document again (by double-clicking its file) and let OOo perform recovery. 5. When the recovered document has been opened, OOo will open it once again, but from the last saved file! 6. There are now two document windows, one where the changes are included and one without the changes. There is no marking of the first window as "recovered"; the windows appear identical unless one inspects the actual document contents. If one changes the "old" version and saves it, there is actually a warning if one later tries to save the "new" version over the changed "old" version (saying that the document file has been changed since it was opened for editing), but I doubt if many users would be able to correctly handle the situation at that stage. The behavior seems to be the same with very small documents as well as very large ones. OOo should not open the "last saved" version unless the user explicitly chooses to discard the autorecovery version, and if there are reasons to let the user open both versions simultaneously, the windows should at least be clearly marked. (Excel, for example, writes things like "[Last saved by user]" or "[Recovered]" after the file name in the window title.) If OOo Calc were completely stable, this issue might be minor, but it actually does crash spontaneously with large files from time to time. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
