Description Andrew Richardson 2021-07-11 11:12:13 UTC 
Description:
We use LO 7.0 for a reservation tracking database application using an external HSQLDB server.  One of our reports uses Calc template to generate a daily report showing reservations for each hour of business day (7AM - 5PM).  Bug is that on saving the file as either template or regular format results in a large block of spurious blank rows injected between the 4PM and 5PM time blocks.

Attached is an sample file in post-error state.  

Issue seen in LO 7.0.6.2 & 7.1.4.2 (x64)    

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load sample file into Calc
2. Do not run database queries when prompted
3. Scroll down to the 4PM block, notice blank rows between 4PM & 5PM
4. Delete all visible blank rows
5. Save file
6. Reopen file
7. Scroll down to 4PM block, see if blank rows again present


Actual Results:
Blank rows injected

Expected Results:
No blank rows to be added to file


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Defined ranges beginning with Time_NXX have no source, could it be the issue?
Comment 3 Andrew Richardson 2021-07-12 12:05:05 UTC 
The Time_XXX ranges are used purely for BASIC macro, residing in Base *.ODB file (not provided).  I will attached the BASIC macro itself in a separate attachment for reference.
There is no database query associated with these ranges.  It seems only the *last* Time_XXX range exhibits the bad behavior, the earlier ranges are fine. I have only seen this behavior in the LO 7.x releases; earlier LO 6.x releases did not have this problem.

BASIC macros using attached Calc file [REFERENCE ONLY]

Relevant BASIC macros stored in Base *.ODB file (not provided).
For reference purposes only, not directly related to this bug.

Not a regression at least with the provided file. I can reproduce with 6.4, 6.3, 5.0 and 3.5 (bibisect repos on Linux)
