            Bug ID: 138675
           Summary: Crash in LO Base in MS Windows when creating
                    auto-number using BigInt type
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mwtjunkmail at gmail.com

Description:
LibreOffice crashes when attempting to create an auto-id of type BigInt in
LibreOffice.  The database file cannot be launched again after the crash,
resulting in LO repeating attempting (and failing) to launch. 

LO is left in memory, meaning the file cannot be deleted, but there's no entry
in Task Manager to kill. Hard reboot required.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch LO
2. Select Base Database, bringing up the Database Wizard
3. Select Create a new Database (HSQLDB is the only option)
4. Hit Next.
5. Leave all defaults on the "Decide How to Proceed" wizard page
6. Hit Next, bringing up the Save As dialog box
7. Name the database and click Save, bringing up the tasks window in Base
8. Click Create Table In Design View, bring up a new table design grid
9. Under Field Name, type AutoID
10 Under Field Type, select BigInt[BIGINT]
11.Under Field properties at the bottom of the window, set AutoValue to Yes
12. Click to the next row in the database table



Actual Results:
LibreOffice will immediately freeze or crash. If it freezes, you'll get a
Windows spinning timer and be forced to close LO manually via task manager.

Expected Results:
Should do one of the following:

1. Allow the user to continue to the next row and continue working
2. Warn the user not to select BigInt as an autovalue type (and prevent it)
3. Fail more gracefully than it did here.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
