Re: [libreoffice-users] LO 3.6.1 bug report

Mirosław,
Thanks for your interest and advice.

I have created an example file (on a Mac). With LO 3.5.6 no problem. 

The file has 4 columns of data: in the first is a date, in the second an item description, in the 
third a number (my example records amounts paid into or taken out of a bank account, so this is a 
sum of money), and the 4th column holds the account balance, so it is the sum of the number above 
and the number entered in column C. The file has a title row then 5 rows of entries as above.

With LO 3.6.1.2, I insert a new line 4 - that is, between the 2nd and third entries that I started 
with. Into the new row I add for example:
A4                               B4                               C4
31 Aug 2012 <tab> New row/item <tab> 100.00     

Then I drag the "ear" of D3, which contains the formula, =D2+C3, down to cell D7 which still holds 
the formula, =D6+C7, and is returning the balance before the extra line was added. When I let go 
the mouse button, the program quits and the document requires recovery on the next start.
Note that I have a workaround (when I remember): delete the calculations I need to update before 
trying to copy the calculation in D3 down the column. It's a perfectly acceptable workaround, but 
obviously it shouldn't be necessary :)

In a separate email I will make this example file available to you, Mirosław (as offered off-list). 

If the bug is confirmed please advise me where I should send a report, so I don't misuse this list 
(and my apologies for having done so on this occasion).

Dave
