WW8: problem export text-formfield to MS Word format
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:25:44 UTC
Problem with saved Word form document which was opened in OO. After this document was saved from OO and opened in MS Word 2000 the form fields can't be directly edited. Form can be edited only by clicking on fields.

Yes, can see the problem. MRU->FLR: The FormFields (especially the text fields from page 3 on) are re-exported as normal Field commands. Thus the content cannot be edited directly anymore in the protected form in MS Word (only via right-click and "Update"). A kind of intenal flag should be enabled, so that OO knows, if these fields should be exported as Formfields or normal fields.
