I see that this issue is marked as FIXED, but I am using 2.0.3 on Windows and
this is still a problem.  It has been a problem since at least 1.1.
Just trying to open a plain text document or copying from another application
using rich text will cause OO to go completely unresponsive or crash.
The thought has occurred to me that this may be a non-focused dialog problem.
In many of these cases, there SHOULD be a dialog come up asking me how to import
the specified file.  I never see it.  Instead, I get an unresponsive app.  If I
am copying and pasting, I can choose PASTE SPECIAL, I can then select AS
UNFORMATTED and get the text okay.  If I just PASTE, OO locks up.
Is the text import dialog perhaps being generated, but not being forced to the
foreground?  Is OO waiting for me to respond to a modal dialog that I never see?
Just a thought.
I don't have the tools or know-how to investigate this.
Does this make sense to anyone else?
For some time, my workaround has been to import into MS Word or Excel, save as a
Word document, then load that into OpenOffice.
But come on -- that's just wrong!  ;-)
I would appreciate any word of an actual fix for this problem.
Thanks.
