Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 110692
Sheet lost in incorporated Calc OLE
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:41:46 UTC
Severe bug found in OOo 3.2. Data loss. Steps to reproduce: - Open the attached OLEbug.odt in Writer. - Double click on OLE object to modify. - Write something into a cell. For example d in A4 on Sheet1. The object has 2 sheets. - Click over the OLE object to leave the edit mode, and quickly save the document. - Reopen the document, and double click on the OLE. - BUG: Sheet2 is lost. It's non 100% reproducible, but verified by many users. Maybe it depends on the speed of execution. Thank you for your attention.

The step 4 is "Click outside the OLE object" not "over"... Thanks
100% Reproducible with "OLEbug.odt" and "Ooo-Dev 3.2.1 multilingual version English UI WIN XP: [OOO300m14 (Build 9489)]"! It does not matter how I save and close the document, second sheet always was lost when I reopened closed document. NOT reproducible with "OLEbug.odt" and "Ooo 3.1.1 WIN XP DE[OOO310m19 (Build 9420)]". I failed to create my own sample document. Only reproducible with clones of "OLEbug.odt"? @vitriol: Can you please contribute a step by step instruction how to create an won sample document?
@rainerbielefeld - Create a document in Calc with two sheets, and save as ODS. - Insert the Calc document into Writer with Insert > Object > Ole object... > Create from file. The option "Link to file" must be unchecked. - Save Writer document as ODT. - Delete the original Calc ODS document.
Reproducible! Before I saved a writer document, I increased size of OLE spreadsheet after doubleclick, changed from to sheet 2 to sheet 1, iserted A-c into 'A1' ... 'A3', clicked into writer document area, closed saved with name, reopened (without deleting CALC document) and second sheet was lost. I used WIN dialogs, I did not test whether problem also appears with OOo dialogs.
Add me to cc.

OOo v 3.2.1 on Windows 7 Home Premium It looks like this bug may have eaten several hours of my homework. I will attach both the eaten assignment, and the previous assignment that was not affected. I notice that when opening the odt files as zip, the undamaged file has object folders, while the damaged file is missing those folders. What can I do to not reproduce this bug on my subsequent homework assignments?
