Example file from Excel

If I create a VBA Project in Microsoft Excel and export the *.xlsm file with LibreOffice Calc, the structure of Microsoft Excel Objects (Workbook/Worksheets) looks different than the original version in the VBA Project.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new *.xlsm file with Microsoft Excel 2010/2013/2016
2. Create a new module in the VBA Project. (optional)
3. Save the file and close.
4. Open the file with LibreOffice Calc 6.0.4 and save as *.xlsm.
5. Open the file with Microsoft Excel

Actual results:
The structure of Microsoft Excel Objects looks different than the original (Makro_teszt.xlsm) version. After the third export in the VBA Project there are more unnecessary Workbook/Worksheets object.

Expected results:
The structure of Microsoft Excel Objects should look just like the original version.

Comment 9 Markus Mohrhard 2018-07-22 00:36:10 UTC
Seems that I implemented a wrong order for the Module and Document Object streams:

MS-OVBA in section 2.3.1.3 states:

ProjectModule
= ( ProjectDocModule /
ProjectStdModule /
ProjectClassModule /
ProjectDesignerModule )

A normal module is a ProjectStdModule and it seems that as we are exporting them in the wrong order MSO is not handling the import correct. I have a fix but need to test that it actually works.

Dear Gabor Kelemen,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword
