testcase.odt

OSX 10.10.1, LO Version: 4.5.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 2d59c0c940ac61240992502256c966b2cb4f9daa
TinderBox: MacOSX-x86_64@49-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2015-01-04_01:16:22
Locale: de_

Reproduce:

* open .odt file
* save as .doc file
* open with word

Currently (see screenshot):

date on page 1 is shows as:
"Date: ??
????
??
??"

Expected: date should be shown correctly as in original file

I am aware that there is a ton of other issues with that testfile but one issue per bug is the rule and we'll address the rest in other bugs.

Confirmed that it still looks like my attachment 109676 [details] in MSO 2013.

Looks like the text representing the date in the field is marked as "special". Could someone with the tools investigate this?
