Thank you for reporting this bug to help make Ubuntu better. For more information to work with, could you please open a terminal (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal) and run the following command:
ooffice --writer > ~/openoffice_log which will launch OpenOffice. Open a .doc file to repeat the problem, than paste or upload the contents of the file /home/you/openoffice_log. Thanks! ** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Open Office Writer crashes whenever viewing MS .doc files. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/628143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
