Description khbellgardt 2004-03-10 10:19:10 UTC 
OOoMath interprets the symbol * as mathematical operator. This application is
very rare, mostly the symbol is used as part of a name. 

When OOo imports a formula containing stars as part of the names from a
MS-Word-Document (formel.doc), this formula is shown incorrectly in OOo.

I suggest the import function should take stars as text ("*") as shown in
formel.sxw or OOoMath should not take it as an operator at all.
