Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 7867
Program crashes when user tries to enter 9999 to column size textbox in the "Insert Table" dialogue box.

Reduplication Steps: 1. Create a new text document in OO 1.0.1 2. Click the insert table icon on the "Insert" floating bar. This opens an insert table dialogue box. 3. Clear the default value of column size 5. 4. Enter 9999 from keyboard to column size. Press OK. 5. It takes nearly about 20 second to insert a 2*1 table, and then the program crashes. Configuration: Win Me/ OO 1.0.1 It might be better to prevent user from entering a huge integer value.
Jiehua, thanks for using and supporting OOo. Duplicated on Win NT 4.0 SP6a, OOo 1.0.1. Clarifications: OOo does not allow the user to enter in 9999. OOo does correct the value to 8192. OOo did not crash for me. It does max out the CPU at 100% and eventually returns control back to the user. The table displayed has only 2 rows and 2 columns.

I can't reproduce the crash either. Can you still reproduce it in a 643? The performance problem is quite logical with about 8000 columns that dob't suite on a page...
just thought that user should not be allowed to enter any extreme value like this. It will be good that a message box pops up in this case.
