You are looking for an incompatibility list. I am nor sure if something
like that actually exist. There are some known incompatibilities,
like some VBA macros cannot be imported into OOo BASIC.

Does such a thing exist? If yes, where can it be found? If not, I would
be happy to try and collate something, but I will obviously need input
from the community at large.

Having a list of the problems/issues well documented would help a great
help for many organisations to migrate less "painfully" and to be aware
of certain boundaries that they can use to ensure document portability.

Several of us at OOoAuthors were talking recently about compiling such a list (at least of things to do or not do in OOo when planning to save in DOC format). I know of several items to add to such a list, but I'd have to hunt around a bit to find my notes and refresh my memory on what they are.

This might be a good thing to put on a wiki page or somewhere that people could easily add notes to... at least for compiling the list.
