Description: Note: I encountered this in 7.5.2.1 but that isn't available as a choice in the Version list. 1. Create a blank spreadsheet. 2. Put "c" in A1. 3. Put "=CONCAT(","," ")" in B1. 4. Save it in XLSX format. 5. Create and register a new database connected to the spreadsheet. 6. Create a new labels document, with a single synchronized label. 7. In the first label put "Before<c>After<nr>", where "<c>" is the "c" mail merge field from the database and "<nr>" is the next record field from the same database sheet. 8. Synchronize the labels. 9. Print to a mail merge file. 10. Open the resulting file. 11. Observe that it says "Before,After" instead of "Before, After", i.e., the space that should be after the comma is missing. If you repeat all of the above steps with an ODS file instead of an XLSX file this problem does not occur. Steps to Reproduce: See above. Actual Results: See above. Expected Results: See above. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes Additional Info: Version: 7.5.2.1 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 50(Build:1) CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 6.1; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Ubuntu package version: 4:7.5.2~rc1-0ubuntu1 Calc: threaded
I tried this and I don't get it. You have to clarify some things. By <nr>, I thought you meant B1 with =CONCAT(","," "). However, why do you assume it should output "Before, After" instead of "BeforecAfter"? If I simply do your steps as you write them, I get blank output.
Just a note for testers as it was not explained in step 7, you need to drag into the label the columns from the view you get by activating View - Data Sources.
