I see, I was able to reproduce it after making a few tests. Let me investigate this further. Scenarios that work (for me) ------------------------- OpenOffice 3.3 RC8 + LibO 3.3 RC2 = Works OpenOffice 3.2.1 final + LibO 3.3 RC2 = Works Scenarios that don't work (for me) -------------------------------- Microsoft Office 2007 + OpenOffice 3.2.1 final + LibO 3.3 RC2 = Doesn't work Microsoft Office 2007 + LibO 3.3 RC2 + OpenOffice 3.2.1 final = Doesn't work Microsoft Office 2007 + LibO 3.3 RC2 + OpenOffice 3.3 RC8 = Doesn't work Microsoft Office 2007 + OpenOffice 3.3 RC8 + LibO 3.3 RC2 = Doesn't work LibO 3.3 RC2 + OpenOffice 3.2.1 final = Doesn't work LibO 3.3 RC2 + OpenOffice 3.3 RC8 = Doesn't work -- Jesús Corrius <[email protected]> Document Foundation founding member Skype: jcorrius | Twitter: @jcorrius _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
