--- Comment #29 from stfhell <stfh...@googlemail.com> ---
I have also lost Writer macro changes quite often through this bug. My
"workaround" was more or less crude force: simply saving very often from the
macro editor and saving macros to bas files after extensive edits.
But the steps listed in Comment #24 are not related to this bug. LO is working
as expected: Basic macros are not saved to Microsoft file formats. Word and
Excel cannot execute them. Joel, I wonder, did you really manage to save a
Basic macro to DOC (Comment #23)? DOC and XLS can only store VBA macros...
I think the bug must be related to regular file save and autosaves somehow
interfering with each other, as Apache-OOo-Bug 112775 suggests. Try to
reproduce the steps given there:
> 1. Ensure the Save AutoRecovery option is turned on. For convenience,
> set the time value short, like 2 to 5 minutes.
> 2. Create a new document (spreadsheet and text documents have been tested)
> Create a Module (Module1 by default). Save the document. Optionally,
> open an existing document that contains a Module.
> 4. Modify the Module (for example, add a comment).
> 5. Wait for the autosave action (indicated by a 'saving' message in the
> status bar, which can be very quick in a simple document and thus difficult
> to see) or wait at least as long as the autosave minutes option is set to.
> 6. Close (Save) the document).
> 7. Open the document. Look at the Module. (The change you made is probably
> not there.)

I could reproduce the bug that way (Ubuntu 12.04, LO 3.5.4.2). You can also see
that saving the file from the macro editor works as expected.
