In the launchpad bug report (the link above) there is a discussion about why OOo now behaves like this. I understood from this discussion that upstream deliberate made this change for improved Excel compatibility. I'm an experienced Excel user, and I certainly expect Excel to behave the way OOo now does. OOo 3 (the release version) behaves the same way as the Lenny OOo package as far as I can tell (I'm using the Debian packages in experimental,which work great). So your request to move Lenny to v3 won't change the functionality.
If the above doesn't make sense or is incorrect, then please help by clarifying the differences between your report and the launchpad discussion. Also, I don't see what the data loss is. This functionality change doesn't actually change anything in your document, as I understand it. Are you sure that it qualifies as a "grave" bug? regards Tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
