Description bigbonsai 2007-06-28 20:13:12 UTC 
Error occurs if a Text via Drag & Drop is attempted from Calc over a Base 
Database.

In detail:
Open Database Sources View (F4). Navigate to an existing Table (created with 
Base, filled with data). Drag and Drop a Field into a cell in Calc. The window 
"Text import" (I guess, I have the german version where it is called 
"Textimport") appears. The window does not react to any Mouse input. The 
workaround I found is to right-click the Taskbar Entry of OpenOffice, after 
which the Import-Window works just fine.

This doesn't seem to be a big problem, but if dozens of lines of text need to 
be imported, this gets really annoying. :-)

Thanks for addressing this.

Described problem still exists also in developer version OOo2.3
(OOo_2.3.0_070715_Win32Intel_install_cs.exe)...

reassigning features and enhancements to user requirements@openoffice.org which
will be the default owner for those tasks (was introduced some time ago)
