Yep, this has happened to me with all beta/RC versions too (for me, it

Unfortunately, there is no easy reproducible way to reproduce it on
demand...

It would be nice to obtain a backtrace for that, but I do not know how
to do that in windows. The two causes I can think of are:

- clipboard: LyX hold the clipboard, and it loses it when another
  application launches

Bingo!
100% reproducible crash (3 out of 3) if I start excel after having copied something in LyX. 100% no-crash if (2 out of 2) if I open excel with LyX open and have yet not copied anything in LyX. 100% no-crash (2 out of 2) if I copy something in LyX, then copy something in another application, then start excel. That's a nice workaround for the short term.

I also explains why I was only seeing this bug in long sessions of LyX, not in short ones (when trying to have a reproducible pattern for bugzilla).

PS: Yes, 7 tests is not very good statistically, but I guess that is enough).

- a focus problem

Should I open a bugzilla report or are you doing it?

Many thanks and best regards,

Olivier
