Description jdn2916 2008-06-15 01:37:59 UTC 
The Box is a 32-bit Win XP, SP2 installation.  The OO code at issue is
OOo-Dev_DEV300_m17_Win32Intel_install_en-US.

If you copy an entire worksheet in Excel and attempt to paste it to Calc, the
paste never terminates.  Cutting and pasting a few cells between Excel & Calc
works fine (but really slowly).  In addition, it's very difficult to kill the
Calc job once it stops responding.  I could only kill it once a process manager
screen decided to come up.  Based on the fact that processor usage was pegged at
100% and the fact that the process manager windows took about 4-5 minutes to
actually appear, I'd say that there is some sort of very tight loop that the
program is stuck in.  Oddly, I was able to use other applications during this
period where the process manager would not appear.

I can't reproduce it in DEV300_m21_en WinXP.

jdn2916, please check in the latest build.

If the problem persists, how large was the original Excel worksheet? Is the problem related to size at all?

It is likely this problem has been fixed in a later build, but please check.

jdn2916,
1. Copy an entire worksheet in Excel
2. Make sure you didn't do Ctrl+A in Calc, then paste it to Calc

In this way, I can't reproduce this issue in BEB300_m2 on WinXP. But doing 
Ctrl+A in Calc before pasting it to Calc,  OOo doesn't response. If so, this 
issue is likely to be the issue 59453.

jdn2916,
WinXP, BEB300_m2.
Reroducing process:
1. Copy an entire worksheet in Excel
2. Make sure you didn't do Ctrl+A in Calc, then paste it to Calc

In this way, I can't reproduce this issue in BEB300_m2 on WinXP. But doing 
Ctrl+A in Calc before pasting it to Calc,  OOo doesn't response. If so, this 
issue is likely to be the issue 59453.

Although this issue is a duplicate of issue 59453, the information here adds to that issue, so I will 
transfer it. 

jdn2916, please follow issue 59453 and add your experience to it.
