Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I'm using Openoffice.org 1:2.4.0-3ubuntu6 on a hardy system.

First let me summarize the problem, then I'm going to explain the steps
you can reproduce on the attached sample database-document.

What I wanted to do:
- Prevent the main navigation bar to operate on the subform when a user focused 
that subform
What I did:
- Setting the subform's "Navigation bar"- property to "Parent Form"

Expected behaviour:
- When a user is working on some data in the subform, this does not affect the 
main record navigation bar at the bottom
Actual behaviour:
- The navigation bar indeed shows the right record number ("Record x of y") 
coming from the parent form; however the "Previous/Next Record"-arrows seem to 
still depend on the selected record in the subform - possibly hindering the 
user to switch to the next/previous parent record

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the attached file
2. Open the "pr"-form in edit mode
3. Right Click on the Subform and choose "Form..."
4. Notice that in the "Data"-tab the "Navigation bar"-property is set to 
"Parent Form"
5. Open the form normally
6. Use the navigation bar at the bottom to scroll through the records... works 
okay so far
7. Now click in the subform and select one of
- the very first subrecord
- the very last subrecord
- one in between
8. Notice how the arrows in the bottom navigation bar change to be greyed out 
or not, depending on the selected subrecord
