Or something; the attached document creates problems for MS Office on import. Miklos chased this down and had this to say: <vmiklos> mmeeks: moment, i think i know what's the problem <vmiklos> mmeeks: so it seems word freezes if we put an anchored itage inside a textbox, even if the markup allows to do so; i changed the anchored duck to an inline one, and with that both LO and Word is happy with the docx, i updated it in SparkleShare. <vmiklos> mmeeks: if you can file a ticket for that, then later i think it would make sense to turn "anchored image in textbox" into "inline image in textbox" automatically on export, so that this works out of the box. I guess a gap between the spec. and the reality etc. My Word 2010 hangs in an infinite loop trying to load this .duckx.

(This is an automated message.) Setting priority to highest as this is a MAB. This is part of an effort to make the importance of MAB reflected in priority too.
please retest with 4.3.x and 4.4.x and tell if a new duck file created with newer LibO releases still freezes MS Office. unfortunately I hav no MS Word to test. if bug persists please move this report to mab4.3 list since 4.2.x is end of life
moreover was this really a mab4.2? I see the version was set to 4.4 alpha... so maybe it's a mab4.4 please check
Hey Michael - So I can confirm the issue with your file but if I open it with beta 2 and then save it as a new docx it opens fine. Am I missing something here or is it resolved? For now I am removing from 4.2 MAB (as it's end of life) and tossing this into NEEDINFO. If you can still confirm this issue with beta2 or master can you let us know how to create the file from scratch? Or attach an odt that we can save as docx to see the issue. Of course if it's still repro for you, we can toss it onto 4.4 mab (assuming it just popped up in 4.4 and not an earlier release, in which case 4.3 mab :) ) Thanks!
