Description drfox 2004-04-30 19:03:45 UTC 
I use a veterinary program, Avimark, to merge data into OOo Writer. I received
the error "Invalid class string" when I attempted a merge into the latest
version of OOo 680m36. I am almost certain the merge was working on 680m34.

I do not understand in which way you try to merge data into OO Writer. Is it via
Database access or something like this? The program "Avimark" is not known to
us, and thus we cant test anything with it here.
Comment 4 drfox 2004-05-03 20:50:29 UTC 
I uninstalled m36 and reinstalled m34 and the merge works fine. I found m36 very
buggy even without trying to interface with Avimark, and I have gone back to m34
at home as well as at my office. 

Avimark is the world's best-selling veterinary management software (I am a
user/customer--I have nothing to do with the company other than as a user). It
works with MSWord and, at my suggestion, with StarOffice and OpenOffice. It is
used by over 6500 veterinary clinics with approximately 130,000 employees. You
can download a trial version of Avimark at http://www.avimark.com/Demo/Index.aspx

reopened.
Comment 6 michael.ruess 2004-05-05 09:45:51 UTC 
MRU->HI: looks like the user is merging the content via data base fields in
Writer. The 3rd party program "Avimark" seems to be a database application,
where OO could access the database. please see, if we have any problem in 680m36
or newer when merging data from external databases.

HI->MSC: It's looks to me as a data base issue.
