** Summary changed:

- Open office org 2.3 crashes while spellchecking
+ OpenOffice crashes while spellchecking protected cells

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: openoffice.org
+ Openoffice crash when trying to spellcheck a protected spreadsheet.
+ OpenOffice show a error window which says "Protected cells can not be
+ modified". It is impossible to close that bug message because it won't
+ stop re-appearing, infinitively. If I still try to close that window to
+ get back to openoffice, openoffice will crash or it will open a new
+ error message each time I click on the "close" button of the spellcheck
+ so a huge quantity of windows opens and make the whole computer
+ unstable.
  
- Ubunto 7.10 rel Oct 2007
+ How to reproduce this bug :
  
- Created a small 1 page spreadsheet in open office org 2.3 spreadsheet.
- Had finished inputting the data, had run 'Data- sort' and then 'protected' 
the sheet.
- Then decided to run the spellchecker while the 'protection' was still on.
- Ereror message appeared saying that the sheet was 'protected' and at that 
point the system crashed.
- 'Re-set' the computer to close it down. Then ran the recovery option and the 
sheet was recovered at the point
- just before I did the 'Data-sort' operation.
+ 1. Take the spreadsheet which is attached to the bug report (this spreadsheet 
contains two colomns of data protected without password).
+ 2. Click on the left-top corner to select everything or select a part of a 
colomn.
+ 3. Click on the spellcheck
+ 
+ Result : You will get the error "Protected cells can not be modified"
+ and you will not be able to use openoffice without killing it. Most
+ probably that it will crash or else it will keep opening new windows
+ each time you will click on "Ok" or "Close" and make the system
+ unstable.
