--- Comment #1 from Rainer Bielefeld <ra...@bielefeldundbuss.de> ---
NOT a valid bug report, description is much too imprecise!

I think I can reproduce reporter's observations  with "AOO 4.0.1 – German UI /
German locale [Rev. 1524958 2013-09-20 11:40:29]" on German WIN7 Home Premium
(64bit)", “historic” 4.0 User Profile used for all predecessor versions.

But it's a user error, not a bug.

My steps:
0. If necessary: From AOO Start Center menu 'Tools -> Options -> OOo -> General
   - Check "Use OO dialogs"'
1. From AOO Start Center menu 'File -> New -> HTML-Document'
   > New document will be opened
2. Type some arbitrary words ("This is a test")
3. Save in an arbitrary public documents folder with menu 'File -> Save' 
   > Dialog Appears, do not change Filetype "HTML"
   'Check Auto Name Extension if not already done -> Browse for 
     appropriate folder  -> Type name "Sample" [Save]
   > Document will be saved as "Sample.HTML"
4. Save as  "Sample1.HTML"with menu 'File -> Save as -> Change name to
"Sample1"
5. Menu 'File -> Save as -> rightclick -> Rename -> Change  "Sample.HTML" to
    "Sample.HTM" -> Click on name "Sample1.HTML" -> [Cancel]
   > Dialog will be closed
6. Menu 'File -> Save as'
   Expected (?): 2 Documents listed
   Actual: Only "Sample1.HTML",  "Sample.HTM" is missing.

(a) expectation is wrong! The AOO-Save-File dialog only lists documents with 
    matching filename extension. If you save an .odt aou also only will see 
    *.odt in folder, not *.ott, *.doc, ...
(b) If you want yo can make those "hidden" documents visible by typing "*.*"
    into the filename line, then click [Save]. "Hidden" document appears.
(c) This seems a little inconsistent because File-Open-dialog for HTML 
    documents lists both  put frpm File-Save point of view its consistent
(d) So NOT_AN_ISSUE

@Jens611 
May I ask you to be more precise in your wording? That will help to avoid
"Not_An_Issue' reports. Documents do not simply "disappear". They might be
invisible in a File dialog, and a further test with WIN Files Explorer shows
..." or so.

Please feel free to reopen this Bug if you find out that a real problem exists
in the latest public release of AOO and if you can provide requested additional
precise information. We need a test kit (Attachment here in the Bug report) and
a detailed step by step instruction how to reproduce your problem, for details
please see <http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/QA/HowToFileIssue> and my test
above!
