OK, maybe I was unclear in my bug repport, sorry. You don't need a lots of
errors, just one. As I said, if I save (or autosave starts) in the middle of
coding, when I just didn't finish all the structures (or if I forgot something
as simple as End If), my whole work is lost (since the last successful save),
no way to save it, no way to copy it somwhere else, nothing. Recovery after
that won't work because saving recovery copy triggers the same behaviour.

I'm really not a sloppy programmer, I'm using Calc and its BASIC for work at
faculty for 6-7 years, I even contributed to Andrew Pitonyak's macro
collection. I just don't understand the logic behind BASIC check while saving.
If I'm in the middle of writing some code, when it is still unfinished, it MUST
contain syntax errors, until all the structures are written. My instinct is to
save often, even unfinished code, and I don't expect that saving my code
trigers behaviour that effectively destroys it.

The main problem is that "BASIC syntax error" dialog keeps poping up endlessly.
It would be OK if LO just checks once, lets me know that there were errors, and
saves the current work.

I hope that I have explained the problem more accurately.
