Update styles crashes EA

[Richard Phillips]

I did a quick search and it doesn't appear that this problem has already been reported.

I am running build 8.0.855.

I created some document styles in Word 2007 and saved the blank document as an RTF file. I then made a backup of the original normal.rtl in the ea documents directory and overwrote that file with the new style file.

I then opened EA, selected a template and clicked on File|Update styles. The style visibly updated, the toolbars flickered, then I got the 'Edit Stylesheet' dialog. Pressing OK several times before the dialog closes I then get the 'Styles have been updated' dialog.

Click OK and I get 'Memory could not be read' exception and EA closes. It appears as though the styles have been updated tho.

Anyone else get this problem - happens everytime.
Rich.

Please attach the normal.rtf file in the report.

I had the same issue last week and I've reported it. I included the various files.

This issue has been fixed internally, and will appear in a future build of EA.
