Comment 4 gregorystec 2008-01-04 22:55:09 UTC 
Sorry, but it is not not case of exporting to .doc. The case is if open .doc. If
you open this document (natively created with the MS Word), the date macros
incorrectly displays dates. I this that that is better to resolve some of
problems, especially with import issue than mark them as duplicate to unresolved
issue. How you think to offer OOo for MS replacement if so simple issue are from
practically began unresolved. If you have 15 year old repository of document and
so simple macro do not work correctly. You must stay with and invest in MS
(Office 2007), again.

MRU->HBRINKM: see attached document, the "modify date" field at the top of the
table is shown as empty field, though the document property shows a valid value.

Looks as this fixed in OOo 2.4.
Comment 7 Mathias_Bauer 2008-04-07 13:09:38 UTC 
Sorry, not 2.4: in 3.0 Beta. I tested dev300 m2.
Please verify.
Comment 8 michael.ruess 2008-07-10 14:23:48 UTC 
Yes, works fine in OO 3.0, checked with DEV300m24, but should also work in older
3.0 snapshots / beta builds.
