             Bug #: 45724
           Summary: FILESAVE, FORMATTING, Text field data loss
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.4.5 release
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
        AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: fornar at gmail.com


Created attachment 56694
  --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=56694
.odt file with test field sample.

Data is not retained within a text box when an odt file is saved as a .doc or
.docx

I created a file under .odt but once i have finished with the document and
filled out my text fields i need to save it as a .doc as sending it to people
who only have MS Office.

When opening the file with MS Office (Office 2000 and 2007) the data that was
in the text field has disappeared. Trying to open the .doc file in LibreOffice
also shows the file missing data. Opening the original .odt file in LibreOffice
the data can be seen.

To recreate document:
1/ Select Form Control Toolbar  (View → Toolbars → Form Controls)
2/ Turn On Design Mode (icon on Form Control toolbar)
3/ Draw a “Text Box”
4/ Turn Off Design Mode
5/ Enter text data into text box
6/ Save document as a .doc file.
7/ Open MS format ver in LibreOffice OR MS Office – data (and most formatting)
lost!

Sample documents attached.
