Bug ID: 109219
Summary: Mailmerge: cannot use CSV as Address List with MM
Wizard in Windows
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: gti...@gmail.com
Tools - Mail merge wizard:
1. Next (use current document, default)
2. Next (letter, default)
3. Select address list
3a. Add, select the CSV. For example attachment 134329, field separator is Tab,
text separator ".
If there are no previous address lists, after adding CSV, "OK" is available.
But when there are previous address lists (like ODS) and new CSV is selected,
"OK" is not available. It can be tricked by clicking some other list and back.
But looks like it never really connects. And that's the bug.
3b. Even when CSV is selected and OK pressed, "Next" and "Finish" are not
available. "Match Fields.." is unavailable to set at least one field. "This
doc shall contain address block" is checked and can't be unchecked. No other
option than to press "Cancel".
Expected: OK connects to working address list. Match fields is available so
Next is also available.
Tested in Windows, also with master 6.0+. Looks to me like inherited, seems
that other CSV bugs were tested just in Linux and Mac, so not discovered
earlier. Can be wrong. Works in Linux.
Note: With multiple address list, sometimes the cursor is busy, but Cancel is
still available and that's not hang. Probably related to this bug.
Workaround: Go directly to Tools-Address Data Source.., then External, select
Text, choose path to folder, *.csv (containing headers), Finish, 3. Table
selection select attached CSV, here Field Assignment works, up to 5. Finish.
And File-Print works. But MM toolbar button unavailable.
Here could be another enhancement, probably separate bug: there are too many
steps and should be reduced, choose path to folder is not right, finally MM
toolbar button.
