Description jdpipe 2007-02-07 00:28:36 UTC 
I have a word document that was created using MS Word. I have been editing the
document using OOo 2.0.4 on Ubuntu 6.10 and also OOo 2.1 on WinXP. Since I have
been editing in OOo, I have added various (numbered) figure captions and
cross-references to those numbered figures. I am saving the results back into
the same .doc file each time.

When I recently tried to open my document in MS Word 2003, I saw that all my
crossreferences 'fields' had turned to plain text -- no grey highlighting.

The funny thing is however that when I reimport my document into OOo, the fields
are still there. So somehow OOo is writing to a Word document that *only OOo
understands*.

I was told on the forums that this was a new bug, see here for further description:

MRU->HBRINKM: see the references to the pcture captions at the end of the
document; these won't be fields anymore after exporting the document to WW8 format.

This +2 year old bug is still not fixed in OO 3.1.1!

Very annoying.
