Stylist: Open, select Paragraph Styles; highlight a class & right click; Select
MODIFY.  Dialog box opens OK.  Choose a new font -- Crash occurs!!  The
following information has been gathered:
An exception (access violation) has occurred in module at .text +00025BB5 in

The application is trying to dereference a NULL pointer in order to load a value.

I have uninstalled the entire program and did a fresh install.  The problem
persists.

Perhaps I can gather additional information if it will help, since the problem
is totally repeatable.

Dick, thank you for using and supporting OOo.

If possible, test to see if this problem still exist with unstable 
developer build 643.  Developer builds are for testing purposes only.

What OS are you using?  What patch level is it at?
Comment 2 dfraser 2002-11-14 21:45:31 UTC 
Stefan:

You asked what OS:  Win98SE 4.10.222A
re: testing build 643 -- Where, how does one obtain the pre-compiled
binary??  All I is Source, SDK, etc., etc.
I am not euipped to compile the source files.

Thanks,

Dick Fraser

Reminder, developer releases are unstable and meant for testing 
purposes only.


Dick, you can download the developer release here:

Comment 4 dfraser 2002-11-30 14:17:27 UTC 
Sir:
Build 643 installation failed:  Message was -- Build 643 library
missing  UNICOWS.DLL

This binary was obtained from ftp site Umbc.  The download was
accomplished is five increments (nearly seven hours of connect time)
using Download Accelerator.

Is is possible to secure the missing DLL itself and then add it to the
directory into which the binary is unzipped, and from which the
installation will be made?  I doubt seriously that I will attempt
another full download.

Thanks,
Dick Fraser

Dick thank you for your continued patience and effort.

I've installed the latest developer build from OpenOffice.org and it 
worked for me.  I'm not sure which mirror you were accessing to get 
OpenOffice.org.

Unfortunately I do not know if you can get the .dll file individually.

Since downloading OOo from the main site is inconvenient for you, 
we'll see if other people have experienced the same problem that you 
originally listed.

thanks for using and supporting Openoffice...

I tried with newest version (OOo1.1RC3) and it worked fine...

Please try again with newest version, too and send a new comment if
your problem occurs again...
