Description fkereki 2003-07-08 01:40:17 UTC
Suppose you have a MS WORD text with three paragraphs, and a couple of cross 
references (in this case, in the third one) like:

-----------------------------------------------------
a) This is the first paragraph.
b) This is the second paragraph.
c) This comes just after b) which itself is after a).
-----------------------------------------------------

When this is imported into WRITE, the cross references come out wrong, and 
include the original *text* instead of the paragraph number.
-----------------------------------------------------
a) This is the first paragraph.
b) This is the second paragraph.
c) This comes just after This is the second paragraph
which itself is after This is the first paragraph.
-----------------------------------------------------

Please Attach the documents which make this problem, so we can test it.  

(Without the documents, we cannot confirm the problem easily)
Don't forget to cut other part of the documents, so the file size is
small, but we still able to see the problem.
Comment 3 michael.ruess 2003-09-25 15:09:40 UTC
Not a problem of the import... Writer is just able to reference to the
"paragraph number" (the numbering item).
Writer's reference fields have to be enhanced for this.

I changed to 1.1 RC4, and now the problem is different: the reference 
doesn't appear at all. (See attached file.)
Comment 7 andreas.martens 2003-10-01 14:53:43 UTC
Enhancement for fields. Please collect...

Comment 9 michael.ruess 2004-05-11 10:42:11 UTC
Won't be possible to implement for OO 2.0. Target "OO later" at first.
Comment 10 phil_ 2008-05-14 13:15:28 UTC
Could be a duplicate of issue 2593?
Comment 11 fkereki 2008-05-14 14:39:54 UTC
We have come a long way... now I'm running OO version 2.4 under Linux, and the
references keep coming up blank, as I previously reported in "I changed to 1.1
RC4, and now the problem is different: the reference 
doesn't appear at all. (See attached file.)" on 2003-09-30.

Should I post a new bug report, or would this one still do? It's valid now for 

Comment 12 fkereki 2008-05-14 14:41:55 UTC
As to the question by phil, the ORIGINAL behavior might have been a duplicate of
the 2593 issue, but that has become moot now -- the problem has been different
for the last five years now: instead of including extra text, now references
come up blank.
Comment 13 michael.ruess 2008-10-27 14:10:31 UTC
The feature is already implemented in Writer, now the import needs to be
adapted. Tracked in issue 2593.
