Description bhaskara 2005-07-21 17:44:59 UTC 
Hi,

this is how u can reproduce the problem

0) start OO680_18
1) open new document
2) save as .doc file .... with whatever name
3) insert frame using menu->insert->frame
4) insert formula object in frame using menu->Insert->Object->formula. u can
leave the formula as E=mc^2 
5) save the document (still as .doc)
6) reload file using menu->file->reload
The frame contents are gone after reloading i.e. the frame contents are not saved.

This error occurs of an object like a picture is cut and pasted into the frame.
However this error does not occur when a picture is inserted from a file (like
apple.xxx in the gallery).

Also, this error doesnot occur for tables in frames and chart object in frames.
None of the above occur when the file is saved as .odt

Hope this helps.

The problem is, that WOrd does not allow graphical content (such as OLE,
graphics, drawings...) inside its textboxes. See also issue 25756.

You guys /gals are not saying (in issue 25756) that I cannot insert a textbox in
word and cut (from where ever) and paste a .bmp or .jpg into a text box , are u ?

I know word can handle it as I just did that and reloaded in word and OO and
image did not disappear. OO can do similar things in .odt. I also can insert
equation object into text boxes in word without a problem. Same in OO. BUT  ....
when a native .odt with a bmp pasted into a frame is exported to .doc the pasted
image is not saved ......isn't issue 52280 is data loss bug ( P2 ? )
