Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 5075
Imported MS Word Doc w. Custom Property crashes word processor
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:43:23 UTC
Reproducible (here). MS Word Doc (Word 2002 SP-1, English) with three fields: "Title", "Purpose", "Added Custom Field". Open doc in word processor. "Title" appears as field. The "added custom field" appears as normal text. "Purpose" shows as an empty field (1 character width gray background). Purpose also does not show in the "Fields..." dialog box. Double clicking on it, or clicking right arrow in the "Fields..." dialog will cause an unrecoverable error.
Created attachment 1709 [details] Sample word doc
Thanks for including a file Ulrich. Duplicated on Win NT 4.0, OO 1.0.
Created attachment 2243 [details] PNG screenshot of OO displaying the fields.
Created attachment 2244 [details] PNG screenshot of Word doc with field codes displaying.
Created attachment 2245 [details] PNG screenshot of Word with fields in document.
Note all the screenshots are of the document that is attached to this issue.
Reassigned to Michael.
Does not crash anymore with OpenOffice 643. Doc property fields like "Purpose" can not be imported, because OpenOffice does not have a corresponding feature. Issue 5091 cares about this problem.
Closed.
