I don't really know, and I'd rather not get involved. Since this is a backport of a 2.0 feature it would be best to take it to the people developing it there. Would you mind trying this all out with the 1.9.62 packages (see http://lists.debian.org/debian-openoffice/2004/11/msg00216.html) to find out if this problem still persists there? If it is present in 1.9.62, please file an issue (and add 'haggai' to CC so I can follow). If not, we are missing a fix from the upstream sources. > As for the drop down calendar issue with the date field, here's a > screenshot with Drop Down disabled and enabled. > http://www.phillg.com/calendar.png > > Correcting what I wrote earlier, the date doesn't actually seem to be > in there in white, the field seems to be empty.

Could it be related to this fixed bug and these comments: That bug report was fixed in 1.1 beta, so you already have those fixes in 1.1.x, thus it is a new problem. I don't use forms myself so I don't really know much about these. It would help if you could check if you still have a problem in 1.9.62, and also, please post a test document containing the problem, or a step by step guide how to reproduce the problem. Chris
