Short macro to edit

The changes made by the Autocorrection option of the Basic IDE in the example below corrupts the original source which was correct.

1. Open the attached Writer file and enable macros.

2. Open the Basic IDE
- Tools / Macros / Organize macros / LibreOffice Basic …
- Select Main in Module1 in Bug IDE AutoCorrection.odt and press Edit

3. Check with Tools / Options … that in the "Basic IDE options" the Autocorrection (in Code Suggestion) flag is selected

4. Put the cursor at the beginning of any of the lines starting with
	a = com.sun.star.sdbc.DataType.XXXX
and hit the Tab key

=> XXXX is changed into Xxxx, e.g. DOUBLE is changed into Double.

This raises a run-time error.

Re-tested in version LibreOffice 5.0.1.2 under Windows7.

The observed behaviour is identical to its description in the initial bug report.

Thanks.

Hi,

I confirm that the bug is still present in LO 5.1.5 on Win7.

Regards.

Comment 7 Jean-Pierre Ledure 2017-12-13 14:04:23 UTC
Tested with LO 5.4.3.2 on Win7.

The Autocorrection option seems to have been removed from the Tools / Options dialog box (see point #3 in the problem description above).

As a consequence the issue has been solved.
