Hello,

My first time reporting an issue, so I hope I got it right.


Using OpenOffice 2.3.0, on Microsoft Windows XP, Professional x64 Edition, 
Version 2003, Service Pack 2.

Recently upgraded from OpenWriter 2.0.1

Issue with macros. When I open a document containing macros, Writer stops 
responding and I get an application hang.

Here is the event log:

I tried setting the macro security in Writer to Low and Medium (Tools, Options, 
Security, Macro Security) and got the same behavior.

In 2.0.1, I would select Disable macros and the document would open without any 
problem.

Please help, as I need to update my docs for a release asap.

Thanks!
