------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Nov 26 08:47:43 +0000 2008 ------- - open an arbitrary text document, let's name it doc.odt => besides doc.odt, a hidden lock file ".~lock.doc.odt#" is created - do something which lets OOo crash :), or simply kill it - delete doc.odt from your disc - start OOo - create a new text document - save it as doc.odt, to the very same location as the original doc.odt => the document is not saved, instead an error message pops up saying Error saving document ...: Object not accessible. The object cannot be accessed due to insufficient user rights. There are at least two problems with this: First, of course when I save a file which previously did not exist, the OOo should simply ignore the existing lock file, since it's obviously out-of-date, and not connected to the file which I'm just going to write. Second, if this is not easily possible (though I strongly think OOo should *not* behave this way), then the error message needs to be improved. At least, OOo should tell the user that there is a problem with the file lock. It took me *days* to find out why the heck OOo refused to save a document to "doc.odt" here ... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
