Hi Keith,


Well LO just stuffed up a form that I use daily. All the boxes, labels
etc are just dumped on top of each other. All the program settings have
reverted to the defaults from the first time use-- things like macro
security, background to application and other things selected under
"tools- Options"


There is no apparent reason for this.
Did you play with the zoom settings in any other document, in
particular, a Writer document ? This is a known (old and recurring) bug
from OpenOffice.org and I wouldn't be surprised if it also affected
LibO. It gets fixed, then it gets broken again, along the various
version releases, and yes, it is really frustrating when you rely on
forms for data entry. Many a time I had to try and explain to users what
was happening.

Additionally, I know of a bug that causes this to happen in
OpenOffice.org when the form is stored on a network resource, such as a
NFS or SMB file store. I haven't yet experimented to see whether this
also happens in LibO, but I wouldn't be overly surprised.

No, Alex as far as I know I haven't zoomed in on anything. But I've never had this happen in OO.

I think it's related to the other issues with Forms in Base that seem to have erupted in LO. I'm surprised that it also lost all of my previous settings.

So for now I've uninstalled LO and reinstalled OO which actually remembered all my settings and opened the form correctly.
