<pre>Description:
I use C++ Visual Studio to fill sections - for example addresses in a document
(clipboard).
<a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/ddeml/nf-ddeml-ddeclienttransaction">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/ddeml/nf-ddeml-ddeclienttransaction</a>
<a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/ddeml/nf-ddeml-ddecreatestringhandlea">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/ddeml/nf-ddeml-ddecreatestringhandlea</a>
Exchange of data by clipboard
There is no static connection to a file.
The German version 4.4.7.2 works well.
I tried the version 5.2.7.2 as x86 and x64, also 6.0.5.2 as x86 and x64, but
they do not work.
Actual Results:
Open writer
Menue > insert > section > new
Fill in an attribute
Close and safe it as *.odt
There is no static connection to a file
Call the writer and exchange data by the clipboard
Expected Results:
The address should be there in version 4.4.7.2
The address is not there in 5.4. or 6.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
