Hello Caramba,

Thank you for filing the bug. We would need some instructions from you on how we can reproduce your specific endless export issue.

The problem may be due to your user profile, so please follow instructions at the following link to clear your profile < http://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/903/where-are-the-libreoffice-data-profile-files/ >

Hello there Jay,

Thanks for your response.

I clicked on the link below and went to the page. Renaiming the profile 
to user-old didn't work, neither did the removal of the 
registry-modifications.xcu file. I had earlier updated from 4.2.4 to the 
latest version.

Regards,


Alan.

Hi Alan,

Thank you for confirming that it isnt your user profile, but we would still need some instructions in order for us to replicate the issue. Is it possible for you to do a screencast showing the steps to reproduce this bug. There are free screencast software including camstudio or screencast-o-matic.com.

Note: Please do not reply to these message by email as it adds unnecessary information into the bug tracking system. Please click on the bug number link provided in the email and you will be taken to this bugzilla page, where you can add comments and attachments.
