------- Additional comments from atlantis1...@openoffice.org Sat Oct 17 10:01:45 +0000 2009 ------- If you do a search for this issue on the internet there were a lot of VERY unhappy people when version 3.0.1 was released and Openoffice caused tables to be lost when saving in .DOC format. I have to say I was SHOCKED that such a critical error could make it into a stable release. Posts on the internet testify how people lost hours of work trying to rebuild their tables-especially if they had set Openoffice to save in "DOC" format as default. Mistakes do happen and the developers I know do volunteer their time for which I am very grateful. Openoffice is a great product and I have used it for a number of years. Although I am grateful that 3.1 no longer causes the table data to be lost, from what I can make out from the forum the alignment issue has not been fixed yet. I feel it is CRITICAL that a word processor be able to save table information correctly. MSWORD "DOC" format is used by businesses that I correspond with and I need information that I send them to be displayed correctly. This is not a P(riority)3 problem this is P1 problem! I cannot update from 3.0.0m9 until this issue is resolved. Problems with Openoffice's ability to handle tables and export them correctly to "DOC" only emerged in 3.0.1 - versions prior to this exported tables correctly in DOC format. Why has it taken 6 months to resolve an issue - when it has worked previously in earlier releases? I am hoping that this issue can be resolved quickly so I can continue to recommend this software for people looking for a robust Office solution. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
