--- Comment #23 from Pierre Farrugia <pierresan...@gmail.com> ---
Dear Joel,
The steps to follow are these:
1. Open an document in Writer.
2. Insert a MathType equation using: Insert -> OLE Object -> Further Objects ->
Microsoft Equation 3.0 (or MathType; should be the same). Write something in it
and close.
3. Repeat Step 2 eleven or more times.
4. Try to insert a Math (LibreOffice) formula.
The error will appear at this point.
Personally I use the following macro to insert the MathType more quickly,
sub InsertMathTypeFormulaInWriter
dim oTargetDocument as variant
oTargetDocument = ThisComponent
dim oCurrentController as variant
oCurrentController = oTargetDocument.getCurrentController()
dim oFormula as variant
oFormula =
oTargetDocument.createInstance("com.sun.star.text.TextEmbeddedObject")
oFormula.CLSID = "0002CE03-0000-0000-C000-000000000046"
oFormula.AnchorType = com.sun.star.text.TextContentAnchorType.AS_CHARACTER
oFormula.attach(oCurrentController.Selection.getByIndex(0) )
dim oXCOEO as variant: oXCOEO = oFormula.ExtendedControlOverEmbeddedObject
oXCOEO.doVerb(com.sun.star.embed.EmbedVerbs.MS_OLEVERB_PRIMARY)
End Sub
The error is reproducible both if you use the macro as well as if you insert
manually the MathType instance.
I am running LibreOffice 3.6.2.2 on XP at the moment.
Hope this information is enough. If you need anything else just let me know.
Cheers
Pierre
