You obviously didn't read Richard's posts, or I missed a few; there is no mention of "crashes coming thick and fast". The obvious > solution for him was to cut down the size of document he was using. Nonsense. He didn't mention the size of his documents & only stated "I suggest you open a document of at least half a meg, allow an autosave, then just pull the plug,".

But I imagine that if you do as suggested: open a document of at least half a meg, allow an autosave, then just pull the plug" you will experience the issue that he was referring to, and to which Hagar has identified as http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=92968 > > Thanks > > Rob --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
