Arch, kdemod or kde?. I seems like it should go to Arch because there is something wildly incompatible between the koffice build and kde3. Here is the additional kcrash backtract from trying to open the text file if that will help sort out where the bug should go. Thanks. Also, here is the *contents* of the 1-line txt file kword crashed trying to open: 2008-03-08a-MERGED.txt Yes, that is the total 22 byte contents that crashed kmail. And this is a RC release??? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
