Revision number and editing time in *.doc files changed with OOo is zeroized after reopening in MS Office

When you change (and save) a MS Word 97/2000/XP *.doc format file in OOo, if you open the file in MS Word again the statistics window will report revision number of 1 and editing time of 0. This is bad when you want to edit files on multiple computers (school, home, work). (I found this defect in all versions of OOo I tried: 1.1.0, 1.1.2 and 1.9.77 /snapshot build/, MS word was version 2000 on win98 or win2k)
MRU->MBA: document statistics should somehow be also supported correctly on export to MS Office Formats.
seems to be fixed in versions 1.1.4 and 1.9.100.
>>seems to be fixed in versions 1.1.4 and 1.9.100. will check and close issue if needed
Revision: It is *not* fixed. My mistake, I checked that only in W98's shell extension (rightclick, properties, and so on). Curiosly, while in shell extension everything is OK, MS Word still reports 0 minutes, revision 1. If you save the file then (in MS Word), this is reported in the shell extension as well. Seems OOo can satisfy windows shell with its fake-doc, but not MS office... Issue unsolved yet, then...
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
