I recently reported a Priority 2 bug in the OO.o 1.9.104 beta release (Issue #49865), occasioned by the severe loss of data in files containing several versions of a document. The problem was provoked by the conversion process to version 2 file formats (.sxw to .odt and .sxc to .ods) in that all versions of the document but the current one were discarded.

Well and good so far, but the response to the issue was surprising in its MS-like quality - it's not a bug, it's a feature!

I'd like to know if any other users have made use of the version saving capabilities in OO.o 1.1.4 (and earlier) to maintain an audit trail of document changes, and whether they share my dismay at its disappearance in OO.o 2.0?


Have you tried *File > Wizards > Document Converter*?

Peter, did you misread the first paragraph above? The precise issue IS the failure of the document converter wizard to convert the document in its entirety! From the foregoing responses it seems clear that the converter uses the "Save as" function to perform its task, rather than converting the whole document. The behaviour of "Save as", when used directly, is not a problem.
