As noted in other comments: mine is an "upgrade" installation from Hardy to Karmic. As Cheney states he can not reproduce on a fresh install I decided to try something: 1. I removed the /home/user/.openoffice.org directory 2. Started Openoffice.org writer, all settings and plugins gone 3. Created

I confirm this bug on a fresh install of Karmic Kubuntu. The bug seems to be related to inserting Notes, not track changes. Docs with Notes can be saved in other formats (docx, rft) but the notes disappear. Save in office97/2000 and you get a crash if a note is inserted -- OpenOffice crashes when

To comment on this (the original problem with tables etc): a temporary solution is to change the option under Openoffice.org "General" to use Openoffice.org dialogs. That way you avoid the problem until the fix has been released -- table, numbering and image error when saving .doc file https:/

I of course want KDE4 to be great and all that BUT I have a number of production machines with reasonably happy users and the last thing I want is to put them in an untested and/or buggy environment.
