------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Oct 11 08:14:48 -0700 2006 ------- If several sheets are selected and data is typed in any cell on one sheet, it is duplicated to the same cell in all sheets, silently overwriting the other data (exact repro steps below) . While this may be desired behavior in some very specific cases, in most situations it is totally unexpected (especially to users that are less technologically advanced) and leads to silent data loss. User may not notice this until it is either impractical to restore from backup or all backup copies contain incorrect data. Please display warning, detailing existing behavior and ways to deselect unneded sheets. I am assigning P2 to this issue as current behavior allows _silent_ data lost when performing common operations. Please consider for OOo 2.1. Repro steps: 1. Start Calc, type "something important" in cell A1 on Sheet1. 2. right-click "Sheet 2", click "Select All Sheets". 3. type "else" in cell A1 on Sheet2. 4. Click Sheet1 and make sure that text typed in step 1 is gone and replaced with text typed in step 3. Also note that no warning is given. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
