--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
This seems more like an ODF compatibility issue--ODF/LO supports the format of
the FILENAME field--MS Word does not. In fact the only option for the FILENAME
in MS Word seems to be a /p to include the path, and font case formatting. The
path setting survives round trip between the document formats.
Saving to MS Word 97-2003 .doc, or OOXML .docx the field is export filtered to
{FILENAME} in both formats. But the field content opens in Word 2007 matches
text as was saved in LO--not sure that is correct export filter behavior.
And if the field insert includes the extension (default)--that is shown in Word
2007.
But then toggling field code in MS Word shows the fields (with or without file
extension) was exported as just {FILENAME}. If edit/saved/reopened in Word 2007
as either .doc/.docx, the {FILENAME} field asserts and changes the field text
that came from LO to what Word expects with extension.
So text of field reads as it was saved in LibreOffice--but on save/reopen in
Word, or round trip import back to LO the {FILENAME} field is parsed and shows
with extension.
Simply incompatible formats--and one could argue that we should not export a
field value with text that does not comply with MS formats.
