Description linuxtalk 2007-04-28 08:24:29 UTC 
If a Word 2003 file is opened in OOo 2.2 then any links to Excel files are lost

Example file:
http://www.linuxtalk.co.uk/bug/03-2-1_USA_Only_Gold_-_AFE_Q1_2007.doc 

This is what's seen in Word:

and in Writer:

If the file is saved as MS Word form OOo, and then reopened in MS Word then the
links have disappeared.

Confirmed with 2.2 on XP
Settings in Tools|Options|Load save|MsOffice >[L] don't have any effect.
