As requested by mav, separate issue created from Issue 95154 desc5 These tests were done with DEV310m2 without the Quick Starter, on Windows XP, from the same user. Consequences could be worse if the source document is shared among several users. I used these files (next attachments): LinkSource.ods : simply a list of strings in column B DDE_Test.ods : references a range of cells with a DDE formula In each test, respect the order of actions. *** test 1A *** Open DDE_Test; answer yes to link update Open LinkSource -> bug : it appears as read-only Switch LinkSource in edit mode, leaving DDE_Test open. Change a cell in LinkSource : it is reflected in DDE_Test. This is OK. close all files and OOo. *** test 1B *** Open DDE_Test; answer yes to link update Open LinkSource -> bug : it appears as read-only Close LinkSource, leaving DDE_Test open. Re-open LinkSource : now it is writeable!
Created attachment 60850 [details] Source spreadsheet for DDE links
Created attachment 60851 [details] Destination spreadsheet, adapt the DDE file address
Confirming.
Changing the target to OOo3.x because there are not enough resources.
