------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Oct 7 04:12:04 -0700 2006 ------- I'm afraid this is going to be a bit vague, but I've noticed this three times now, and am really worried about it. Right now, it's even got me a bit angry (at the software and at myself). After a crash, the file recovery kicks in. I'm not quite sure when the last time was I saved, so I click ok. After the recovery, I *know* for a fact though, that I had saved a newer version already, and the recory has not recovered some of my work. Now this would not be an issue, if the recovery had not *replaced* the file on disk (newer) with the recovered version (older)! When using file recovery, OOo needs to create temporary files that are not saved over the last manually saved versions. This is more than dangerous, and has caused problems for a colleague at least once (when I was there, at that time I told her she had NOT saved a more "advanced" version while I trusted OO and told her, she must be wrong) and now for the second time today for me, at which point I'm starting to loose trust in OO and know for a fact that the above is true. I don't have time to start testcases right now, I'm in the middle of learning for my finals, which is why I'm so disapointed by OO (in this matter). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
