Hello,
I have just testing OpenOffice 3.0 RC2, have just opened a document .doc. I note that we cannot modify the contents of the personalized fields of the document, even if this one is recorded in .odt. This one shows only 4 personalized fields which can be modified but in this example there is much more. Is it a normal limitation of application ?

hello François,

we can actually have an arbitrary number of user-defined fields.
for ooo 3.0, i have re-implemented the underlying service that stores everything you see in the properties dialog. the user-defined fields tab of this dialog has (in all versions of ooo) only supported the display of 4 fields.
peter has also re-implemented this user-defined fields tab.
unfortunately, this work missed the user interface freeze, and was thus delayed to release 3.1. so, the dialog currently displays only 4 fields; the rest of the fields are loaded and stored and accessible via an API (css.document.DocumentProperties), but not editable in the UI until 3.1.

regards,
michael
