Description capstone737 2004-01-22 01:43:40 UTC 
I have found a document on our system that was created in Word97. I can load it
OK in OOo v1.1.1a but as soon as I try to save it in OOo format, OOo crashes.

I have tried OOo v1.1 on Linux and v1.1.1a on Win2K and it is the same, ie OOo
still crashes. The document opens and saves OK in Word97.

I will attach a copy of the document to this report.

Comment 4 michael.brauer 2004-03-17 13:36:42 UTC 
An " com::sun::star::xml::sax::SAXInvalidCharacterException" is throw with the
following stack:

sax_expatwrap::SAXWriter::characters()  + 0x217	C++
cript_get()  + 0xa289	
SfxScriptLibraryContainer::writeLibraryElement()  + 0x223	C++
SfxLibraryContainer_Impl::implStoreLibrary()  + 0x57a	C++
SfxLibraryContainer_Impl::storeLibraries_Impl()  + 0xa40	C++
SfxLibraryContainer_Impl::storeLibrariesToStorage()  + 0x7b	C++
SfxScriptLibraryContainer::storeLibrariesToStorage()  + 0x70	C++
SfxObjectShell::SaveAsOwnFormat()  + 0xb8	C++
SfxObjectShell::SaveTo_Impl()  + 0x21b	C++

The source of this exception is an illegal character contained in the basic code
- after removing the orifinal basic code, the document can be saved.  Because of
this, I suggest to retarget the issue to OOo 2.0
Comment 5 thorsten.ziehm 2004-03-18 10:59:00 UTC 
Because of limited resources for OOo1.1.2 we decided to set this task to target
OOo2.0.
This isn't a general problem with Word97 documents and macros. This document is
special and out of this reason it is justifiable to re-target the bug.

accepting.
Comment 7 Daniel Boelzle [:dbo] 2004-05-10 13:14:16 UTC 
fixed.
Comment 8 Daniel Boelzle [:dbo] 2004-05-10 15:07:27 UTC 
Investigating this bug, it seems to us (AB and me) that the .doc import filter
has imported non-Unicode characters, thus it ought to repair/ignore/warn about
such characters when loading the document, so the user is informed about the
corrupted document. The basic library export as well as the sax writer rely on
valid XML.
Comment 9 Daniel Boelzle [:dbo] 2004-05-10 16:00:59 UTC 
as agreed to you, Martin.
Comment 10 andreas.martens 2004-06-16 17:01:52 UTC 
Because of a shortage of resources we're not able to promise to fix this issue
for OOo 2.0
