Trying to sort any list of words such as:

Dog
Cat
Hog
Ape

will freeze the writer program. This bug can be duplicated EVERY time. Select the list of words. Go to Tools menu. Select sort. Bam! It's froze. This bug is present in writer 3.3.3 as well as in writer 3.4.2

Failed to reproduce on LibreOffice 3.4  340m1(Build:103) for OpenSuse Linux.

Copied the exact list and sorted it with no problem. Can you provide a backtrace for the crash? See link: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport .

Thanks.

I am so sorry. Turns out I'm an idiot. I have a second monitor that was turned off and the dialog box was opening on the second monitor. It was waiting for my input making it appear that the program had froze. My apologies. Consider this bug closed.

changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back
to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases.
