The document which leads the converted doc file to freeze Microsoft Word

I exported an odt file to Microsoft Word file (".doc" 97/2000/XP/2003) and this
freezes Microsoft Word 2000 or Microsoft Word 2007 when the user attempts to
read the document.

I sent this converted file to someone who has only Microsoft Word 2007 for
reading and editing the document. This person told me that Microsoft Word
crashed when he tried to read this "doc" file. Note that this person has no
autorization for installing Libreoffice, thus installing Libreoffice isn't a
solution.

I confirmed myself the bug when reading this document with Microsoft Word 2000
(9.0.4402 SR-1) under Microsoft Windows XP Professionnal version 5.1.2600
Service Pack 3 Nu 2600. I used the same host when I converted the file from
Libreoffice.

This bug is confirmed by a third person. This colleague saw this bug too with
Microsoft Word 2000 running under Microsoft Windows 7.

Note that this bugs is a key issue for my manager when he wants my organisation
to buy Microsoft Word. He tells that the persons who receive documents from us
should be able to edit them and send them back to us. Many organisations are
working only with Microsoft Word.
