Hi Rainer,
I could not reproduce the crash. Please retry with the latest build
(OOo1.1RC2) and send a crash report for further examination.
Comment 2 oc 2003-09-17 10:27:31 UTC 
Closed because problem not reproducible and submitter does not give
further information.
Comment 3 Rainer Bielefeld 2003-09-17 11:31:35 UTC 
Sorry, I was a little overloaded and so I lost sight of this issue.

Steps to reproduce teh problem:

1. open attached file "mergecells.sxc"
2. mouseclick on column header A to mark complete column "A"
3. <CNTRL> + mouseclick on column header B to mark additionally 
   complete  column "B"
4. Menu: Format - MergeCells - Define
   Window with question "should the contents ..." appears
4. click "Yes"
   expected: cells or marked column area will be merged
   actual: system crash (can only restart with poweroff-poweron) 

I know, this handling of "merge cell" migt not be that what developers
might hav thougt when they created this function, but "a program
should never crash".

I'm still not able to reproduce the crash (tried on Win98SE, WinXP,
Linux with and without your document). Please try to send a
crashreport. If you allow to be contacted you will receive an
autogenerated mail with the crash-id.
