I can't reproduce this problem on my machine, does this happen to you on all documents or just on some? Can you attach example documents that show this problem?

I only get this problem with odt files. I open spreadsheet, click on
'compare document', select an odt file and the spreadsheet crashes. The
spreadsheet file is brandnew nothing typed in it. I just created a
spreadsheet file and saved it and attempted to compare (I don't know what
thats suppose to do...replace text in my current file with that of the other
file?) and it crashed again.

I have attached screenshots for your viewing pleasure.

Oh ok, I finally managed to reproduce this problem. You are trying to compare a spreadsheet (ods) to a text document (odt), which probably shouldn't give any useful output, but should not crash either. I have also reproduced this bug on upstream's openoffice.org 2.4.1.

Thanks!
