Description Jon Kåre Hellan 2005-07-06 08:45:33 UTC 
Open http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=25351&action=view
(attachment to bug 136577) with CVS gnumeric. It looks OK, except that many rows
aren't tall enough.
Save it in Excel 97/2000/XP format. Watch 'Unhandled expr type 20' and lots of
'IA__g_object_get_valist: object class `GnmSOFilled' has no property named
`label'' warnings scroll by.
Open and see "Broken continue" in the text boxes.

The 'no property named label' warnings come excel_write_ClientTextbox trying to
fetch label attributes.
Comment 1 Jon Kåre Hellan 2005-07-06 14:50:01 UTC 
The 1.4.x branch doesn't have this bug.
On another machine with HEAD, the text boxes ended up blank instead of "Broken
continue"

In the crash, after the TXO we're parsing, there are 2 CONTINUE with text: 1
8224 bytes, 1 5223. Then, one CONTINUE with markup. This causes the "Broken
continue".

The crash happens because "Broken continue" isn't valid input data to
ms_container_read_markup.
