I have been using OOo for 4-5 years now & have been greatly satisfied
with the completeness of the Suite. There is one BUG that may force me
to revert to the MS alternative.
I've searched the EMAIL & Discussion archives & found the same issue
reported back in Sept/Oct 2005.
BUG: When a document is opened by a MS Word user the 'File locked by'
is set to the current user id. When a second user tries to open the same
document, a dialog lets you know who has the document locked. This is
not true if the first user has opened the document with OOo. In this
case, the previous MS Word user id is reported.
Is there a fix or workaround (going to everyone that may have document
open is not a workaround!)?
