Description jvifian 2010-05-12 00:43:55 UTC
OS: Windows XP SP3 running wia VirtualBox on linux
Excel Version: 2002
OO versions: 3.2.0 build 9483 & 3.1.1 Build 9420

I'm not seeing how to upload example files, but this is what I did to see if
this was re-creatable.

I created test1.xls  In Excel with 6 buttons created with the form toolbar on
Sheet1 cleverly named button 1 etc. Each button is is linked to a separate macro
in module1 which does 'msgBox("Button 1") etc. There are also some hyper-links
to navigate to sheets 1-3, and each sheet is a different color.  Pretty simple.

I open in OO 3.2 and the buttons work. I save as test2.xls -
Tools->Options->Load/Save->VBA Properties  has all options checked.

I open test2.xls in Excel and the buttons are missing and Excel usually crashes
when trying to close the file.

Similar results when saving with OO 3.1.1 in Linux (Kubuntu)

Reproducible with test kit, "Ooo 3.1.1 WIN XP DE[OOO310m19 (Build 9420)]",
"Ooo-Dev 3.2.1 multilingual version English UI WIN XP: [OOO320m16 (Build
9497)]"! After "save as EXCEL 97" buttons in "Test1_new.xls" will only be
visible in OOo after reopen, not in EXCEL VIEWER. Buttons visible (but do not
work) when I save document after I ungrouped buttons.
Also other form fields (I tested with added check boxes in attached sample
documents) are affected, grouped fields will be invisible in EXCEL VIEWER
