------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Aug 19 08:48:28 +0000 2008 ------- The import settings control the import of embedded documents of specified formats, not more. The links are standalone documents that are not really a part of loaded document so they are not converted on import, and not affected by the settings. The linked document could be opened in OOo in case the system does not support MS links as in case of Linux, that would be a nice feature. But this feature needs a new implementation in the import filter or in the OLE handling itself, so that the link object is parsed and converted to OOo link. We would probably need an additional entry in import settings to control import of the linked objects in this case. But I am not sure that this feature is worth the efforts. Anyway, the MS links are currently handled as they are ( as any other MSOLE object except the objects that can be imported ). They are just imported on document open and stored on storing, so that no information is lost. They can be used, but only on Windows systems, as any other non converted MSOLE object. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
