Hi,  
  
I am the developer for the OOo spellechecker.  I simply can not  
recreate this issue under Linux at all.  This bug does not hit 
me or many others since this is the first bug report of  
this type for OOo1.0.1.  There was a bug that caused hangs in OOo  
1.0 under Windows.  Are you sure you are using OOo 1.0.1 and not OOo  
1.0?  
  
Also can you please provide me with some more information:  
  
1. is this with the US English installed dictionary or some  
self-installed dictionary from our download site.  If a  
self-installed dictionary, please indicate which one and tell me  
where you downloaded it from.  Bad dictionaries can actually cause  
OpenOffice.org to have problems.  
  
2. Did you try to upgrade over a OOo 1.0 or was this a clean install  
of OOo 1.0.1?  Upgrading from OOo 1.0 to OOo 1.0.1 is not supported  
due to changes in where dictionaries are stored and the format of  
hyphenation dictionaries.  
   
3. Is there anything special about the document you are working with  
(was it an imported Word doc or a doc you created from scratch on  
OOo)?  
  
4. Please attach the contents of two files (if they exist) which 
will tell me what dictionaries are registered on your system: 
 
At you main OOo install location:   
   - Please attach the file dictionary.lst that can be found in 
share\dict\ooo\. 
 
   - Please attach the contents of any dictionary.lst file that may 
or may not exist in user\wordbook\ 
 
 
 
Please do all followup in this issue so that others  
can track this issue as well.  
  
I am adding myself as CC to this one.  
  
Confirmation from other users would also be a big help.  So if 
anyone else is seeing this issue on WIN using OOo 1.0.1 please post 
here to let us know.  
  
Thanks,  
  
Kevin  
  

Hi,
I run Win 98 and OpenOffice.org 1.01 but I was not able to reproduce
this issue. Maybe this has to do with the opened file.
I'm still waiting for confirmations or infirmations to see if we will
have to change the status of the issue.

Cheers,

Charles. 

I was unable to duplicate this defect in my windows 98 open offfice
1.01 system.

Hi, 
 
Given neither of you (QA) can reproduce this (and I can't reproduce 
it) and since the original posted never bothered to answer my 
questions or provide any additional info to help track it down, I am 
closing this issue as WORKSFORME 
 
If the original Poster would like to re-open this then he/she can do 
so as long as they try to provide the additional information I 
requested. 
 
Thanks, 
 
Kevin 
 

We can reproduce this bug, but only with a certain probability. Every 
time we type lots of gibberish while clicking on the save button 
every once in a while and having the redline spellchecking enabled 
after half a page or so newly typed gibberish stops getting 
underlined. Then the underlining goes totally nuts -- if i type a 
space before or after an already underlined string the space (or tab 
for that matter) gets underlined too.
Once we have reached this level of meltdown calling upon the dialog-
based spellchecking results in a crash.

We have reproduced the above with different file formats (.doc 
and .sxw). We have also checked that the files themselves don't get 
flawed -- upon restarting OO.o and reopening the file spellchecking 
works great on them.
It seems to me that saving is not necessery at all. We have seem the 
same phenomen with larger files (~100 pages long). I have just 
moments before reproduced this by switching between languages 
(multiple times) while redline was turned on.

Our test OS is Windows 2000.

I'm trying to find the cause too, but I'm rather clueless. Thanks for 
any thoughts.
(BTW I can't reopen the issue so I leave it resolved.)

reopening based on latest commnet but I do not hink this is a Spellchecker 
issue  and is probably an sw dialog issue of some sort.

Submit a sample file if you can still reproduce it in the 1.1 beta1

Yes, 1.1 seems to be all right, good job!
