My economy, the reason I'll have to switch to OpenOffice. There should be 17 comments.

I've discovered two instances where lots (or all) of the comments I've added to my spreadsheet disappear. I will provide the file in question. The problem is so annoying I might have to switch to OpenOffice.

First, if I edit the sentence at C:43, "SENAST KOLLAD 23 NOVEMBER" to "SENAST KOLLAD 26 NOVEMBER" by only changing the 3 to a 6, then save the document, close it, and reopen it, all the comments are gone.
Actually, if I change it at all, the comments disappear in this way.
If I just add in the text "blabla" somewhere, save, close, open, the comments are all gone. So yeah, seems I can't really do anything with the document.

Second, if some comments are shown when I save and close the document, all other commens will be gone when I open it. If I show a comment, then hide it, it will still be there when I open the document again. If not, it won't be there.

God bless Dropbox for their restore function. It really saved my ass a couple days back. I haven't been as furious in quite a while as when I opened my document to find all the important notes gone.

The file attached is the file in question, my economy since August.

Thank you, Mattias, for taking the time to help us improve
LibreOffice.  That is particularly good of you when the program is
serving you poorly.

Can you please let us know what version of LibreOffice you are using?
When you respond, please set the status of this report back to
UNCONFIRMED.

Thanks,
Terry.
