Re: [libreoffice-users] Personal settings causing calc to crash

Hi :)
Errr, asking this list was a good 1st move and is probably what i would do.  Hopefully someone 
might appear that does know exactly what caused it.  It's difficult to know how flustered someone 
is or how experienced with this sort of thing.  I sometimes get flustered and just need a calming 
nudge to remind me.
Regards from
Tom :)
