Summary: Dropdown form contents is not saved when using .doc
format
Product: openSUSE 10.3
Version: Final
Platform: i686
OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: OpenOffice.org
AssignedTo: eward@xxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: sitsofe@xxxxxxxxx

Description of the problem:
Filling in and saving it off a form containing a drop-down box in Word 97 .doc
format will result in a file that does not contain the dropdown choices or the
answer picked. Unfortunately it is not clear that this is what is going to
happen and makes it difficult to use Linux in MSOffice environments.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Download dropdownform.doc (to be attached) containing a drop-down Word form.
2. Open the dropdownform.doc in oowriter .
3. Click on the grey box below Dropdown.
4. Select "Drop-down Item 2" then click on OK.
5. Go to File -> Save As...
6. Put newform.doc in the Location box (I'm on KDE) and make sure the Filter is
set to "Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP (.doc)" .
7. If prompted that formatting might not be saved click on Yes.
8. Close the current document (which should now be called newform) by going to
File -> Close .
9. Go to File -> Recent Documents 1: (which should be the just saved
newform.doc) and open it.
Expected results:
Drop-down Item 2 to be in the grey box below Dropdown. Clicking on the grey box
to
show a list of items as follows:
Drop-down Item 2
Drop-down Item 3
Drop-down Item 4
Drop-down Item 5
(Note that the first line is an entry of empty spaces).
Actual results:
Grey box below Dropdown is empty. Clicking on the grey box shows a window which
does not contain any items.
How reproducible is this problem?
It is reproducible every time.
Version information:
openSUSE 10.3
OpenOffice_org-writer-2.3.0.1.2-10.5
(also reproduced on OOo 2.4 from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/OpenOffice.org:/STABLE/SUSE_Linux_10.1/i586/
on a different system).
