Description Unknown 2001-12-14 19:23:19 UTC 
I've been able to reproduce this bug many times over (unfortunately!);

From the menu elect to DELETE SLIDE

As this point the blue status bar will start from the bottom left and you'll be 
prompted with "Are you sure you want to delete slide # (whatever the slide # 
is)"

By selecting YES, the screen seems to freeze, followed by another message 
window, saying "There has been an irrecoverable error.  Save work?  Yes No"  or 
very similar.  

By electing YES, the program hard crashes.

First couple of times this was annoying, and frustrating.   

HOWEVER, if you simply ignore that message box and keep working, you can 
continue to work and you can SAVE (!!!) your work.  Then close that 
presentation, and life is good.

I'm not sure what causes this bug, but I thought someone may want to look into 
it.  Please feel free to e-mail me if you need more specifics.

thanks

I was able to reproduce this bug but very rarely. Do you have a 
certain document where this crash happens more frequently? I was not 
able to figure out a scheme for the crashes. It seemed, that most of 
the crashes happend when I had a textbox selected or was in the edit 
mode. Any clues? Thanks in advance.

I cannot reproduce the bug a single time now, sorry. Due to a lack 
of further information I close this issue now.
