            Bug ID: 117129
           Summary: Libre office Swriter crashes when opening Microsot
                    word doc in 97-2003 doc format
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.2.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer

Description:
i have a word doc file created in 97-2003 fomat. However every time i try to
open it, all of libre office crashes. Including files i have opened in Scalc
,or other Libre office suite.

The document however opens perfectly with MS word viewer.

Note: The file contains various private information and I cannot upload it
here, However I can send to a private email , provided IT is not posted
publicly.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a few scalc,sdraw, swriter docs
2. Now open one attachment I provide
3.Entire libre office suite crashes, bringing down everything


Actual Results:  
Entire libreoffice suite crashes and closes down. Information is NOT saved in
other documents

Expected Results:
Only the component that is being opened, ie, the document must crash and other
suite of software / documents must be isolated. 

This would be good case to identify and perhaps make libre office more robust
and crash proof with isolation / ring fencing of crashes only to one particular
instance of document operation.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I have a document that is causing this crash. I cannot however upload this as
it has various personal information. SO I can only send to a bug developer as
long as it is not publically posted.
