Dear List
 
I apologize for getting into the converstion so late.
 
The problem is with the way the .docx chart is created.  It is linked to an 
external data source.  I do not know how Libreoffice handles external links to 
data but I have no doubt that it is different than MS Office 2007.  When the 
.docx document is opened, the LibreOffice program can't deal with the external 
link.
 
If you notice the .doc version has the chart as a graphic not an interactive 
chart.  That is why LibreOffice can show the chart.
 
Even MS Office 2003 can not handle the 2007 external link.  That is why it gets 
converted from an interact chart to a graphic when it is saved as a .doc.
 
I hope that is helpful.
 
John McAtee

It looks like Stefano has identified it as a bug with LibreOffice. You 
can read his notes. Someone will submit it and hopefully it will be 
fixed for the final version.
