hi fajar, thank you for your answer. search/replace would be fine, but it works only with text (and the problem is in the links, which are "hidden" for search - even in the "raw" format of the .odt document, opened by a binary-code editor). btw, in my case link change was only file:///C:/path...-> file:///path..., the file:///C:/path...-> http:///path... happened to another guy, who wrote to forum some time ago (without any answer, it seems...) some similar issues (image loss) are mentioned on the oo web without solution or serious answer, with lower priority (as not really reproducible). i dont understand that low priority. i find any bug causing loss of data (or large amount of work as in my case) as very serious one. in fact, killing oo as a "professional" tool. in the office i cannot afford unreliable sw. irony is that i choosed oo for this work exactly for its better image management... :-( btw, i tried a bit of testing - it seems that saving images with relative path (useful behavior, if you have to move your work to another location) dont work even if this is selected in settings (maybe with url it works, i didnt care...) henrich ps i forgot to mention, i use oo2.2.0 on winXPh and core2duo/2gb-ram machine
