Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Base Field Defaut Disables Save

Just occurred to me that I should attempt the same thing in NeoOffice which is a slightly earlier 
ver (3.1.2).

NeoOffice, let me click save and exit, but the changes to the "defaults" did not save.  When I 
reopen in LO or NO, they are not saved.  

I also realized that I WAS able to save defaults for the text based fields (Memo and Varchar) but 
not for Integer, Date, or Numeric fields. I said I couldn't save for any of the fields I tried.
