I first considered it a M$-Office bug, but it happens also on .doc

The "modified / date" field always changes to "modified / author".
I cannot reproduce your problem. I am using OOo 2.4.0 on Win XP
pro/SP2. I created a new text document (Writer). I did
Insert>Field>Author followed, two lines down, by Insert>Field>Date.
That's because you are not doing what I believe the questioner means.
In Writer, go to Insert | Fields > | Other... |
DocInformation. Under Type, choose Modified and under Select choose
Date. The field correctly shows the file's modification date. Save
this as .odt and reopen and all is well. Save it as .doc and open
that in Microsoft's Word Viewer and all is still well. (I'm guessing
that this would also open correctly in Word itself.) Open the
(unchanged) .doc file again in Writer and the Modified/Date field has
become a Modified/Author field instead - and stays that way if saved
again. So, yes: I can confirm the problem. (This is with my 2.4.1
for Windows XP.)
