Writer crashes while trying to open a file previosly created by itself.

My girlfriend was trying to write some document for her studies using OO.o and after that wanted to minimize the space required for the text. After making the text split into two columns she couldn't return to the initial state (she uses OpenOffice 1.1.0 under Windows2000) and sent it to me. On my OpenOffice 1.1.0 running on Debian GNU/Linux (both 'vanilla' and 'debian' versions of OO.o) the software just opened the document and after a second, the CPU was used by 99%. Only killing the application helped. The result is that she didn't complete her work and got angry at OO.o. In my opinion it is a serious problem because it happened during a normal work and made further work impossible.
Created attachment 12251 [details] this is the document which causes the problems. i've given it's address because i didn't know that I can attach files.
can confirm this, but this is fixed in OOo1.1.1a please try to open this document in with 1.1.1a. the formating is a little bit wired on some text parts, but this could be handled with a minimum of time.#
fixed -> closed
