Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 89487
Opening Word document with notes crashes OOo on Mac
Last modified: 2008-05-15 08:20:23 UTC
OOo 3.0 Beta crashes on my Mac when I open a MS Word (97/2000/XP) document that contains notes/comments. This happens for documents created in MSWord XP (under Win2K), OOo 2.4.0 (Mac/X11), and OOo 3.0 Beta (Mac/Aqua) itself. Steps to reproduce bug: 1: Create a new document in OOo 3.0 Beta. 2: Enter some text and insert a note. 3: Save in MS Word 97/2000/XP format, and close the document. 4: Reopen document. Step 4 causes OOo to crash. In contrast, if the document is saved as an ODF Text document in step 3, it works fine.

Thanks, it's good to see it's fixed. I searched for bugs about notes, not comments, so I missed that one.
