             Bug #: 55009
           Summary: : Cell content based on linked document does not load
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.6.1.2 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Spreadsheet
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Problem description: 

Say you have 2 spreadsheets A and B. B names some cell set in A say 'dataset'.
Furthermore, B has some cells whose content is a formula whose value depends on
a search done in 'dataset'.

If you open A and then you open B, on opening B, libreoffice says that B has
cells with content linking stuff in another file and asks if you want to update
it. If you say 'yes', then B becomes visible with all the updated content from
A in its cells.

Conversely, if you open B, but you have not opened A before B, libreoffice
still recognizes the presence of linked content. Furthermore it still asks if
you want to update the cells based on the linked content. However, after you
answer yes or no, B becomes visible with all the cells based on the content of
A in an error state.

Apache Openoffice 3.4.1 has the same problem. However, I am almost sure that
ancient versions of Sun openoffice used to do it right.
