------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue May 20 06:33:50 +0000 2008 ------- 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.
