Jozef,
There is something you can do fix the problem, create a unique index
for the
identifier.
See the document
http://bibliographic.openoffice.org/files/documents/124/1284/HOWTO-increaseFieldSizes-V1.0.sxw
for instructions. You can not create the index until you have removed the
duplicates but it will prevent you adding new duplicates in the future.
regards
David

Zitat von Jozef Riha [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
say, i made a mistake in one of the items and want to do
the correction so it gets corrected in all the occurencies.
the problem here is that the other occurencies are ignored. instead,
the corrected item is added as a new one.
Dear Jozef.
This problem is well-known to us. It has been requested quite freqently
and there are already issues about it: issues 26841 and 44189.
Although this issue is considered important by me and others, the current
architecture is not build to support this notion, that is, the entries
within one document are not linked to each other in any way.
Unfortunately there is neither currently a solution available, nor do we
(the members of this project) know when there will be. There are however
workarounds, e.g. finding and editing all references with the same ID in
the document. If you are a very good programmer, you could probably write
a macro that does that...
For OOoBib, the bibliography extension we are planning, this is already
considered, of course.
