example made with OO 1.1.0 rc4
Comment 4 vytis 2003-09-22 14:43:53 UTC 
this is still not fixed on OO 1.1.0 rc4. (look to attachment)

i think, problem is that DDE Link is beeing pasted (or shown) with
encoding iso 8859-1.
Comment 5 vytis 2003-10-03 07:57:18 UTC 
the same in OO 1.1.0

But i noticed on more thing, after i opened document attached to this
issue, i did not found any link.
Should I post it as separate bug?
Comment 6 mci 2003-10-08 10:20:30 UTC 
Hi vytis,

I opened your sample document with OOo1.1 final and didn't get any "?"
in the first line (heading1)...
I didn't get a link...

And please send a new Issue for the missing link...

set to worksforme...
If there's no new comment regarding the lithanian text this Issue will
be closed on 10/29/2003...
Comment 7 vytis 2003-10-08 12:58:07 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1. open Text document
2. write text with lithuanian symbols (i think, it can be any
character from non iso-8859-1 charset).
3. copy / paste as DDE link.

4. BUG: DDE link as with not lithuanian characters

5. save document with DDE links
6. close document
7. open the same document
8. BUG: There is no DDE links.

8. BUG: There is no DDE links.

This is the reason, why i cannot attach document with this issue example.

Comment 10 mci 2003-10-09 10:55:47 UTC 
Hi vytis,

i took a closer look to your document and then I saw: 
the link is there,you can see it by pressing [ctrl][F9]: 
But the target of the link isn't reachable (Untitled1, element
DDE_LINK1)...
So I took a new document and inserted the header of your document,
inserted a new section called DDE_LINK1 and then the link worked...
You're right, some symbols are replaced by "?"...
I'll attach the document...

Comment 15 ulf.stroehler 2004-06-08 11:35:22 UTC 
us->mru: I guess the cause is a wrong understanding of DDE links. Can you help pls.
Comment 16 michael.ruess 2004-06-08 12:57:31 UTC 
MRU->OS: it looks like that when the Field "DDE link" is used, the field is not
able to process unicode symbols. Take the first attachment of this issue. There,
select the first line and copy to clipboard. Via "Paste special", paste the
content at the end of the document. There, the DDE field containing "?" instead
of lithuanian symbols will be inserted.
When copying the whole document content and using section for displaying the DDE
link, everything works fine.
