Welcome window duplicate after DDE
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:11:42 UTC
As requested by mav, separate issue created from Issue 95154 desc5 The test was done with DEV310m2 without the Quick Starter, on Windows XP, from the same user. I used these files (next attachments): LinkSource.ods : simply a list of strings in column B DDE_Test.ods : references a range of cells with a DDE formula In the test, respect the order of actions. Open DDE_Test; answer yes to link update Close DDE_Test but not OOo, the Welcome screen appears. Open LinkSource : -> bug related to Issue 100085 : it appears as read-only (remember : DDE-Test is now closed) -> bug : LinkSource appears in another window, the Welcome screen window is still visible, it should have disappeared. Close LinkSource but not its window : you have now 2 Welcome screens ! Reopen Source : now it is writeable (Issue 100085). You still have a Welcome window.
Created attachment 60854 [details] Source spreadsheet for DDE links
Created attachment 60855 [details] Destination spreadsheet, adapt the DDE file address
