OOO 1.1.1 Doc. Try saving as Word 2000	none

Description josephmmorgan 2004-07-22 18:41:26 UTC

I am converting my WORD 2000 documents into OOO 1.1.1.  My resume is a complex 
document with tables nested within tables.  OOO 1.1.1 reads the document 
properly, and saves it into OOO 1.1.1 format.  But, to share it with others, I 
tried saving it back into Word 2000 format.  All the nested tables' content is 
gones and replaced with "[Frame 1]", "[Frame 2]", etc.  I cannot find how to 
attach the document, but if you email me, I will send you a copy.

Sorry.  This is the first issue I reported and didn't realize I would be able 
to attach the document following the original issue screen.  The OOO 1.1.1 
document is attached.  It is just fine.  However, try saving into Word 2000, 
and then open it with either OOO or Word.  The nested tables' content are 
missing.

This problem will be fully solved in OO 2.0. Currently (until 1.1.x) OO Writer
does not support nested tables. When importing these from Word format, a
workaround was used by the filter: the inner table was placed in a frame in the
according table cell.
At the moment you can test the nested table feature with OO 2.0 snapshot build
1.9.680m47. But there, the import from MS Word has still to be adapted, which
will happen soon. See isue 25680.
