Hi Alex,
I have run Audio Hijack before, but I'm not running the app while working
with LibreOffice.
Could you give me a hint how to disable it completely and I'll test again.

I have some other info that might help. I talked someone through the
process on an OS X Snow Leopard machine with LibreOffice 3.4.4 and they
didn't seem to have the problem.
This leads me to believe it's an issue between LibreOffice and Lion.

I have run some other tests this morning and have some more info.
Since you mentioned Accessibility preferences might be a cause, I was
concerned about my use of the Dvorak keyboard layout which is available in
OS X. I shut that layout off and used the standard english keyboard for my
test this morning.

I installed LO 3.4.4 on my machine this morning and all test I did gave the
same result with LO 3.4.4 and LO 3.5.0.

What I discovered is that this all has something to do with changing the
name of the form during or after the wizard creation process.

For example:

If I create a form, using the wizard, and at the last step I DO NOT CHANGE
the default name for the form,(The wizard will use the name of the first
table the form connects to.) the form works and does not crash LibreOffice.

If at the last step in the wizard, I change the form name to something more
appropriate, when the form opens and I click on any record that is
displayed, LibreOffice crashes.

I even created a form leaving the default name, made sure it was working,
then went back and right clicked on the form's name in the Base control
panel and changed it's name. When I went to open the form again,
LibreOffice crashed.


So, in brief.
Use Mac OS 10.7 (Lion)
Build a small database (My test only had two fields and two records.)
Build a form using the Data Sheet style (It seems like the other layouts
work fine.)
Try one with and without changing the default name of the form and you'll
see that any time the name get changed when you try to use the form,
LibreOffice crashes.

I hope this help.

I'm a big proponent of Open Source software.

I appreciate your effort, Alex.
