OpenOffice ver. 2.4.3
01. NOTE: OpenOffice 2.4.3 new default install. No changes.
02. Windows XP Pro SP3 32-bit logged in as ADMINISTRATOR
03. OpenOffice Quickstart turned off (doesn't seem to matter).
04. Run OpenOffice Calc to create a new default spreadsheet
05. Place an integer in cell A1 by typing 123 for example, press ENTER
06. Save as C:\DDETest.ods
07. Close "Calc"
08. Run OpenOffice Writer to create a new default document
09. Select Insert, Header (default)
10. Inside the header, select Table, Insert, 3 rows 3 columns, click OK
11. This creates a table w/ default row/column sizes in the header
12. Place the cursor in the center cell
13. Now select Insert, Fields, Other, Variables, DDE field, automatic
14. Name=Test, DDE Statement=soffice C:\DDETest.ods Sheet1.A1
15. Click Insert, then Close
16. Observe the field works, and indicates the numeric of 123 etc.
17. Save as C:\DDETest.odt
18. Close "Writer"
19. Open C:\DDETest.odt by double clicking on it in Windows Explorer
20. (Not internet explorer)
21. Note that the DDE field is completely gone.
22. Note that you were not prompted to "Update All Links Y/N"
23. Other notes:
24. In OpenOffice 2.0 the DDE field would disappear simply by residing in, or
existing in a table
25. Now, in ver 2.4.3 THAT seems to be fixed, but now a DDE field dissapears if
it's in a table AND the table is in a header
26. Using a Pre-3.0 version is greatly desired.
27. Please release ver 2.4.4 or 2.5 to correct this.
