RE: [libreoffice-users] ver. 4.2 copy/paste bug - update

Tom,

Issue with Calc were one of the reasons that the ESC is moving directly to a 4.2.2 release.

Grab the current TinderBox build of LODev 4.2.3 and install that to see if it has corrected 
behavior with your corrupted formulas.  
http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/libreoffice-4-2/Win-x86@42/current/

Most of the patches applied there will be in the upcoming 4.2.2 posting.

Stuart

Subject: [libreoffice-users] ver. 4.2 copy/paste bug - update

On Feb. 17, I posted about this problem. I got several potentially
useful responses. With the limited time available to me, I've explored
them all, and here's the present status of this problem:

1. I'm running ver. 4.2.1.1 now.

2. The problem reported earlier is still very much with me. I typically
begin my day by running a macro that opens 8 Calc spreadsheets,
including several that are rather large. I use these to organize my day
and track certain complex tasks. I've been doing since 2005, and using
LO/Calc to do it since 2008.

I've tried deleting my user profile. I can reproduce the error
_immediately_, with the only profile change in place being a lowering of
the macro security level to the lowest level to allow me to actually USE
my spreadsheets. So, this doesn't appear to be a user-profile corruption
issue.

3. Here's the problem:

a. I move some cells from one sheet in a Calc document to a higher
location in the same sheet.

b. This messes up some linked formulas, so I copy two cells that are
correct down through all the others (normally this works OK). to relink
the formula.

c. Immediately and I get this error message:

/vector::_M_range_check

/...closing the error message modal window immediate crashes the whole
problem.

I'd attempt a bug report, but every time I've tried that I've gotten
lost in the sheer strangeness of the process. I just can't take the time
to try to wrestle through the process, which is certainly not set up for
average users, I'd say.

I can offer to share the spreadsheet in which the crash occurs, for what
that's worth. It has maybe 30 sheets and is about a meg. in size. I did
find that removing about 15 of the sheets appeared to stop the problem,
for unknown reasons.

I'll continue to use ver. 4.2x, as I seem to have a workaround figured
out, and hope that this gets fixed in future releases.

Tom
