Hi Knut,

Now, fight! :D

       This is a developers forum, not a place for sending E-mails about
reported bugs :-) It is only on-topic if you have a patch, or you want
advice and code pointers to help chase the issue down.

I have debuged this in OOo321, as this is the version I've been able to compile.
I have found out where the delay happens (I think).

Line 183 in \svtools\source\svdde\ddecli.cxx

pImp->hConv = DdeConnect( pInst->hDdeInstCli,*pService,*pTopic, NULL);
DdeConnect is not an OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice function. I guess it
is in unicows.

What can I do now to make progress?

According to this document: http://www.techsoft.de/htbasic/support/dde_man.pdf
Default timeout for dde connections is 20 seconds.

As described in the bug report, this happens when an new soffice
process is used to start the macro. So I have a theory about that the
new soffice process blocks the DDE activity of the main soffice
process for 20 seconds, and when it times-out, the macro call to
DDEInitiate is allowed to continue.

Is there anyone who could help me with some brainstorming on which
tactics to use fighting this bug?
