Of course you could get problems if you want to copy terra bytes of data :-) By the way you didn't send the crashreport for it? That would help me to verify that this is the same crash I already fixed. Only to be on the safe side. ;-)
I wasn't given the opportunity to send a crash report. Is there somewhere I can change the setting to enable that? All I get on my Ubuntu laptop is a chance to auto-relaunch the app. When the document recovery screen comes up, lets me start and finish, and then goes on to finish loading. I would really like to enable (or re-enable) that since I lost 44 records last night with no warning. I had saved each record, and see no way for me to have 'saved' the database, since the 'save' icon was grayed-out. After collecting the records, I opened my Calc sheet to change the raw numbers into percentages. When I connected to the query in the DB, OOo crashed. I expected the data to still be there, since I have to save each record individually. I am certain that, had I closed the DB before running Calc, I would not have lost that data. I promise I'm in no hurry to reproduce that result! ;-) I have never seen OOo crash so often in my experience, going back to whatever version came with SUSE Linux 8.0.
