Description David Jacob 2009-07-31 16:05:10 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
1. open Gnumeric
2. attempt to open the .xls file (using either Ctrl+O or the "Open a File" button)
3. Gnumeric then crashes/closes itself with no error or warning messages at all


Stack trace:


Other information:
I'm using the Win32 version of 1.9.10.

This is probably a problem with a specific feature included in the spreadsheet.  I opened the spreadsheet with Openoffice 3.1 and it opened just fine.  I then tried copying the spreadsheet over to a new Gnumeric spreadsheet and it copied over with minor formating differences.  After saving this, Gnumeric could open the new version just fine.  I would attach the before and after spreadsheets, but I cannot figure out how to do that here.

Please attach the file.  (You can only do that after the initial report
is submitted -- kind of dumb, but that's the way it is.)

Comment 3 Morten Welinder 2009-08-19 13:29:48 UTC
Hmm...

It loads just fine for me, although I notice that there is a image on the
sheet.  That would suggest a duplicate of bug 591097.
Comment 4 David Jacob 2009-08-19 13:41:07 UTC
There's an image?  I can't see it in Openoffice...

Bug 591097 talks about a pop-up with an error message, which I don't get.  The window simply closes with no notifications or errors after I attempt to open the file.
Comment 5 Morten Welinder 2009-08-19 14:14:22 UTC
The image is near H1-I1.

We'll need to locate someone who can debug this on Win32.
Comment 6 Morten Welinder 2009-08-19 18:02:53 UTC
Same as bug 591097.  Fix in hand, see bug 552545.
