Hello Markus, thanks for reporting this issue. A new major release of LibreOffice is available since this bug was reported. Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version. (In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #1) I have tried the provided functionality out again together with the software combination “LibreOffice Calc 6.4.3.2-904.3”. * Missing user rights are not reported at the moment. I would appreciate if the error message would have been more precise about the detail for which files the permissions were questionable for a moment. * Now I can load external data for another test. I become curious then for a graphical display how many data were linked from external information sources. May I adjust the update intervals anyhow?

(In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #3) * I would appreciate a more constructive response according to my feedback from 2020-05-11. * I find the behaviour in the dialogue “External data” partly questionable according to the software combination “LibreOffice Calc 7.1.0.3-977.3”. https://help.libreoffice.org/7.1/en-GB/text/scalc/01/04090000.html + I can eventually choose an acceptable file path from the drop-down list. But the button “OK” would be still greyed out then. It seems to get activated only after a successful file selection after pressing the button “Browse”. + The previously shown drop-down list can become empty. I use my WhatsApp from https://apkwa.net/. It is safe to use? |
