Priority: medium
Bug ID: 68751
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: Date Controls changed in Basic
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: t...@tim-passingham.co.uk
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.1.1.2 rc
Component: BASIC
Product: LibreOffice

A self-contained test database with a Date field in Form1
I used to be able to set a Date Control (oControl) on an LO Base form by
writing:
oControl.Date = vDate
Where vDate contained an ISO date form yyyymmdd as an integer.
This worked in LO 4.1 and all previous versions I've used back to 3.4 or
thereabouts.
This does not work now, and I get 'Object variable not set'. This is a pretty
significant change for a minor release (4.1.1). I think this is because the
Date attribute is now not a simple attribute but contains Day, Month and Year.
I have managed to work around this particular issue by setting the date using
the 'Text' attribute (as opposed to 'Date') and a date string instead, but it
will have several knock-on effects in my code that I have not yet found.
I attach an LO Base form with a macro. Open Form1 and press the PushButton.
This runs the Test Macro that sets the date control to be a date using the
yyyymmdd form. This gives an error in 4.1.1 but not in 4.1.
Is this a deliberate change, or a fault, and will the behaviour in 4.1.1 carry
on for all future versions? I need to know whether to trawl though two
separate systems and their macros to take account of this, or not.
