Another bug clue ---

Using LO Calc 3.5.4.2, when I insert a comment, I can successfully save it and then view it using Calc v3.6.0.4 without issue.

Using Calc v3.6.0.4 as the creator of the file, when I insert a comment, save the file and reopen the file, this does not work. The inserted comments are lost whenever the file is saved/reopened.

Please see attached, and it appears that the Save As "MS Excel 97/2000/XP/2003 XLS" function in Calc v3.6.0.4 is not working properly.

Thanks again for the follow up.
