It was one document. Perhaps I wasn't clear. SO worked fine until today. Then I \
opened a prerfectly normal Word2000 document - text only, no graphics, charts, \
tables, nuthin. As soon as the document opened, SO told me that it had hit a \
nonrecoverable error, but, hey, don't worry, things will probably be peachy on \
restart of SO. I tried to restart SO and that's whewn I saw the problem: I get the \
opening banner on top of the normal SO desktop, but I cannot access anything behind \
the banner. It's just crashed.. The only way to get outr is to kill soffice.bin.
