Options -> Load/Save -> VBA Properties Options for MSO 97/2000/XP

If you open the property Dialog (Alt + F12) and navigate to Load/Save VBA Properties the options are defined for:

- Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP
- Microsoft Excel 97/2000/XP
- Microsoft PowerPoint 97/2000/XP

My question is, is it really related to this specific versions of MSO or are the options related to the VBA functionality in MSO?

Cause MSO 97/2000/XP are very old (up to 20 years) and not used any more. So if it's an generic setting, remove the 97/2000/XP header string.

That's more a question to the developers.
Comment 2 Heiko Tietze 2019-11-21 15:17:49 UTC
ESC gave green light to change the label. Just use Microsoft Word/Excel/PP.
Comment 3 Xisco Faulí 2019-12-02 16:30:39 UTC
if we want this change for LibreOffice 6.4, it should be done before week 51
Comment 4 andreas_k 2019-12-02 19:12:09 UTC
patch is in gerrit and will land in 6.4. Thanks for the ping
Comment 5 Heiko Tietze 2019-12-02 20:15:13 UTC
Always a big advantage to use references: I52e0e132e752eb90bb50f292b0ee08cfa167a9c7 and I52e0e132e752eb90bb50f292b0ee08cfa167a9c7 will trigger this ticket as you set tdf# there. So it's not fixed but in progress.
Comment 6 Heiko Tietze 2019-12-02 20:15:59 UTC
The correct action is to assign the ticket to yourself.
Comment 7 andreas_k 2019-12-02 21:17:57 UTC
