Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 49824
Hyperlinks imported as plain text in Base
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:33:27 UTC
No apparent support for hyperlinks when exporting from spreadsheet to database in build 1.9.104. Hyperlinks from spreadsheet files written in excel and OO 1.1.4, 1.9.100, 1.9.104 are imported as plain text when opened as database tables in 1.9.104
please describe what you would expect - how should they be "imported"?
I have a spreadsheet for tracking of sample progress through a laboratory setting, and and for each individual sample, a column in that spreadsheet that has hyperlinks to additonal data - SEM and cathodoluminescence images, etc. I'm playing about with the new database in the current beta releases, as I think turning this spreadsheet into a database would make tracking my samples easier. Anyway, the hyperlinks I have in the spreadsheet to the images stored elsewhere on the server do not function when the spreadsheet is turned into a database, it just imports them as text entries in each cell, rather than as a hyperlink.
Hi, The wish is to have a hyperlink text field in the database view. So you can display a text as a hyperlink. I reassign it to the User Experience Team for evaluating. Bye Marc
