------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Sep 28 14:03:28 +0000 2007 ------- May be I'm not able to understand or I'm unable to explain me in English, if so, please excuse me for spamming this issue. If I open this document http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/1715/custom-properties.doc using OO Writer custom properties ARE present as variables "User Fields" (look to menu item "Insert | field command | other ... (CTRL-F2)" I'm using Writer with Italian interface, so my translation of menu items could be incorrect). So Writer convert MSWord custom properties (open the same document with MSWord and you find them in File|Properties|Custom) into Variables. But if I try to open with Writer this document http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/48587/Meeting%20Report.doc custom properties are not converted by writer and are present as normal text. I'm not interested to save from writer in .DOC format, because I would like to convert all my documents in ODT format. I just need to read custom properties of all my old documents. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
