------- Additional comments from oo_g...@openoffice.org Fri Aug 21 15:54:18 +0000 2009 ------- a simpler view of text writer table wider than 32 col losing brains in export problem SEE ATTACHED H3.DOC in OO text writer 3.1.0m11 vista HB v6 b6001 sp1 just a simpler look at the complex table losing its brains when saved as w97 .doc file. This is a simpler view with less mess. ref 104017 (sorry i couldnt readily see how to add this to existing discrepancy report. TO REPRODUCE open this file (or create new file with table 1 row, 32 col, type unique character in each field(or just in the last column),I used a-b, A-F) save it w97doc, drop the window, reopen, appears OK, then...) click in last col "F" insert col (after) note new col is #33 click in new cell type "G" saveas new named file (w97 doc) close win open newly saved file table is now 32 col and the G is now out in the cold below the table expect table to have same dimensions, same number of elements, and same data after saving and reopening in word97 doc format. Just an aside: please note that after reading the notation made on my issue #104017 about this being a problem with complex tables that did not exist in 3.0 I dumped 3.1 installed 3.0 reworked my project so that it was nice and clean. saved many versions as doc but never dumping my window. almost as an afterthought I went to saveas odt but it blew up. my doc/w97 files all had crap for tables. (so i just dont learn from mistakes.) the problem seemed to be worse in 3.0 but different when boiled down. if I created a table of any dimension, lets say 1x1 (with sides on each, right and left margin) then drag the left side (margin too) of the table to the right an inch maybe, upon saving doc/w97 (exit window) then reopening I found the right margin had moved the same distance to the left so the table had less width than when I saved the doc. subsequent save/drop/reopen operations caused the single celled table to shrink by this amount until the table poofed out of existence and the contents were left sitting there staring at me wondering where its table had gone. so much for 3.0. so, is there any way to save my text doc w97 format with tables wider than 32 columns? dont care what version. did it work in any version i can download? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
