------- Additional comments from zagusk...@openoffice.org Tue Mar 31 11:34:38 +0000 2009 ------- I successfully replicated the bug in Open Office 2.4.1 on Windows XP Professional running service pack 2. I’ve tested it with the file the original poster has supplied. Adding one character, space or any more text throws of the word count by a huge margin. The initial character count is 69954 and the word count is 9630, but if you add a character to the end of the document, the character count dips to 69287 and the word count also goes down to 9547. If you delete this extra character, the word and character count only decrement by one, so it seems to be an issue when the document is first loaded. Typing and deleting any amount of characters after the initial huge dip for the counts works fine. I tested inserting a character in a random spot in the file, and the same symptoms reappeared. I also added a single character, and saved the file after the miscount occurred. When reloading the file, the word count appeared to be 9547 and the character count was 69287, and adding more characters or words did not pose any more problems. I even tested adding a single character to force a miscount, then deleted it, and saved the file. When reloading this new file, the word count did not appear to be faulty. I also tried taking the original file, and using the save-as command and saved it in a different location with a different file name. I ran the same tests on it, and the exact same symptoms occurred, so it appears to be only the original file that was posted that seems to be prompting this bug. The last test I ran was making my own file. I copied and pasted random text to drive the character and word count high, to around 70000 characters. This did not prompt the error, and hence I conclude that it seems to be something specific to the original file. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
