This bug is similar to 61075 but was not resolved when 61075 was resolved in
002.4 : 

Bibus is a free, open bibliographic database program
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/bibus-biblio/) that can interact both with MS
Word and OO. The interaction with both programmes works slightly differently. 
The problem is that when references and bibliographies are inserted into a .doc
document using Word and Bibus and then this .doc file is opened using OO2.4, the
fields have disappeared, they are not even imported as simple text. This is a
regression as at least the simple text-importation has worked in older versions
of OO (see 61075 for this). 
I have attached a .doc file that has been created with Word 2003 and Bibus. When
opened using OO2.4, one can see that neither the inserted citations nor the
bibliography is shown (i have also tried this with word 2000 with the same
result). The result (not showing the fields even as text) is the same if OO is
run on a computer where MSWord is installed or if OO runs on a computer where
MSWord has never been installed. I mention this as somebody else had commented
for bug 61075 that this was the case.

Thanks in advance for having a look at this. Bibus is a really good
bibliographic software and more and more widely used, but one of the few
handicaps it has is that one cannot switch between Word and OO without loosing
the bibliographic information. It would be a good sign if one of the biggest
open software projects existing makes an effort to help other, smaller open
software projects that have less resources.
