Hi Joaquin,

I'm sorry, the file is confidential and I've been trying for the last 15
minutes to delete the text from it, but it keeps crashing AbiWord when I
get to certain areas of the text (this could be a related issue). So I'm
afraid I can't post this. I'll try to find some time today to go to a
'doze workstation and produce a bogus document that has the same
problem.
