Hi :) The instructions at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport help you get more information from your system. Strace and whatnot (as Amiko Kauderer at NASA says)
The simplest way to get info is to run LibreOffice from a command-line. So open a command-line, perhaps by using Ctrl T and then type in soffice I would then open the spreadsheet by grabbing it with a mouse and drag it onto the splash-screen, around the edges where its a bit grey-background rather than in the middle white area. You could use File - Open or back when you were on the command-line maybe could have typed in the path-name/file-name but that's all getting tooo fancy so i'd click&drag. Take care NOT to close the command-line's little window or it will close LibreOffice for you. When LO crashes the command-line should show some interesting reports about what happened. many programs allow you to run with a -v to get more verbose output soffice -v might not work but it might be worth trying just to see. Remember you can't copy and paste to/from the command-line using the normal keyboard shortcuts but mouse paste always works (or add Shift into the usual keyboard combo) Regards from Tom :) On 14 November 2013 15:38, Jay Lozier <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, 2013-11-14 at 12:17 +0000, david_lynch wrote: >> I have a fairly large and very complex spreadsheet: >> >> Number of sheets 12 >> Number of cells 123562 >> Number of pages 55 >> >> size 1.23 Mb >> >> much calculation (typically about 200 cells aren't formulas) and many >> array formulas. >> >> [4.0.5.2 on Windows] >> >> Usually, but not always, when I add a formula to this spreadsheet, CALC >> crashes saying Calc has an unexpected error and is saving.
