Crash when changing a text box to a combo box

Post by jardenp »

I've been having a similar problem with Base crashing when forms are involved, but my JRE was still enabled. My issue--at least today--is that changing a text box to a combo box in a form crashes Base and requires a recovery. I also have a form that won't delete. I'm a little frustrated by OOo.

Since your issue is different from the initial thread ([Solved] OpenOffice crashes after an java runtime upgrade), I've split the topic and moved it in the Forms section.

I have experienced the same problem when trying to change a text box to a list box. This is on a wizard created form then right-click on the desired text box and select "replace with" creates the clash. This is on OOo 3.0, XP SP3.

This a known issue - don't have the issue tracker number right off hand - anyway it is already 'coded and fixed' and will be part of the 3.0.1 bug fix release.
