Description Unknown 2003-02-19 13:14:05 UTC

I use Mozilla 1.3b as my browser and I have OOo set up as my default MS Word
document handler.

When viewing the above webpage, I clicked on the link labelled "Microsoft's
response" twice quickly in a row - this link points to
"http://www.mvps.org/vb/rants/VBTransition2.doc". I immediately get this error:
'DDE Server Window: soffice.exe - Application Error', 'The instruction at
"0x1e359009" referenced memory at "0x00000006". The memory could not be "read"'

I tried recreating the error (on the same site with the same file) twice or
three times in a row *before* letting the browser fully download the file, now
it's cached, I can't get the error to happen again.

After letting the browser download the file, I tried recreating the error on my
machine by writing a simple HTML page with a link to the same online word
document, but this doesn't cause the error either! 

What seems to be happening is that the file from the web has been half
downloaded when I get the error, of course this could be partly a Mozilla error,
but the message box says soffice.exe ....

I hope this helps.

Not sure what to do about this one: clicking on hyperlinks in 
half-downloaded documents shouldn't cause a crash ( can't reproduce 
this anyway, since I don't have mozilla) but you shouldn't do it, 
either :-)

For what it's worth, the hyperlink he clicked on was
a hyperlink *to* the document.  I have a feeling
the bug would happen with IE, too, as long as 
it takes a long time to download the document.

Try clicking on http://www.mvps.org/vb/rants/VBTransition2.doc
a bunch of times fast in IE... 
I will myself, once I get to a Windows machine.

JA: cannot reproduce using Linux...
JA->HI: please test this on Win2000. Just click two times on the link
with a very short break between the clicks.

Craig, can you reproduce this with OpenOffice1.1beta?

I tried it with ooo1.1beta on windows xp, and was unable
to reproduce the problem.  I did notice something odd, though:
the taskbar icons for OpenOffice were orange sometimes.
I have no idea what that means.  Seemed to be a toggleable state.
