            Bug ID: 130434
           Summary: Cyrillic characters are crippled when the copied Base
                    table is pasted in Calc
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.4.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: sergey_nemna at yahoo.co.uk

Description:
Hello,

I guess this bug may have been discovered and described elsewhere, but I failed
at finding it.

I have this Base table (please see attached) containing mixture of Latin and
Cyrillic characters. If I copy the table to Calc via the Base context menu
«Copy» command, all Cyrillic characters in Calc are replaced with their Latin
diacritic counterparts (code page Win 1251 -> Win 1252).

However, should I drag table to the Calc worksheet, it works with no problem.
Also, Cyrillic characters are preserved when copying in the opposite direction,
from Calc to Base (via either dragging the worksheet to Base or copying Calc
cells and pasting them on the «Tables» pane of Base, which results in creation
of a new table).

It is not to say this bug makes life impossible, after all dragging from Base
to Calc does the deed. Nevertheless, it would be nice to know whether other
people are affected and if the fix for this nuisance can be expected any time
soon.

P. S. I use LO 6.3.4.2 on Windows 7 x64.

P. P. S. It does not make any difference whether it is HSQLDB or Firebird DB,
the bug is still there.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the attached odb.
2. Right-click the only table, select «Copy».
3. Switch to Calc; click «Paste».

Actual Results:
Cyrillic characters are replaced with their Latin diacritical counterparts.

Expected Results:
Cyrillic characters should be preserved.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
