Break Links doesn't function in Calc; links still there after re-opening file
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:24:20 UTC
After Breaking links from Edit > Links.. closing Calc file with saving it and re-opening the links to other Calc file still remain.
I can confirm it step by step: 1. Create a link to a cell in another document 2. choose "Edit -> Links -> Break" 3. Save 4. Reopen and the link is still there
Hello I confirm with Windows XP buildid=310m11(Build:9399) the problem occurs also with wordprocessor Step to reproduce : 1.Insert > Ole > Ole object > Create from file > Check link to file 2.Edit > Links > Select the link > Click on Break link and confirm 3.Save the document 4.Reopen... Sorry but I do not know if I am supposed to create another Issue because the module is different, but it seems that the problem is the same. Please indicate me the procedure. Best regards
so it seems to be framework, doesn't it?
Reproducible with "Ooo 3.2.0 RC2 WIN XP DE-multilingual version German UI activated [OOo320m9 (Build 9476)]", so OS -> ALL Also reproducible with WRITER. If you save a new WRITER document in the same folder as attached "11971542601675001438kuba_Envelope_2.odg", then 1. insert drawing as linked object with menu 'Insert - Object - OLE object - from File', 2. Save writer document, 3. Break link using 'Edit - Links - Break link' 4. save and close WRITER document 5. reopen document expected: document with embedded DRAWing actual: document with linked DRAWing Sometimes I even get the message "11971542601675001438kuba_Envelope_2.odg can not be found" in step 5
Created attachment 67234 [details] OLE object for test
Added keyword
Also Reproducible with "Ooo-Dev 3.3.0 multilingual version German UI WIN XP: [DEV300m70 (Build 9478)]"! This is a 3.3. blocker, do we already have a task issue for that?
Reproducible in Calc on WinXP, OOo310m11 Novell Edition Build 2009-05-27. In addition, one cannot see the entire path of the Source file in the Edit Links window because it is cut off, e.g. "file:///c:/dokumente%20und%20einstellungen/moser_h/lokale%20einstellungen/temp/note" is only part of the path to the file.
I also confirm it with Windows Vista + OpenOffice.org 3.2.0 Calc Ja Build.
The link is still there because the formulas referencing the external documents are still there, and Calc automatically creates links upon reopening, on demand. In order to fix this, we need to convert the values of those cells to static values when the link is broken.
Please file a separate bug for the writer issue. I'll only deal with Calc's issue this time.
I'll take care of this in the koheiextref01 cws.
