crash report crash on reporting a Base crash

I am not even sure if I am in the right place to do this so bear with me. I am simply trying to report a bug using the automatic bug reporter. I tried twice and twice it collapsed into a Microsoft Bug Report. Initially though, I was trying to send through a crash report that surfaced because I used "Base" thinking that this was the base introduction, got frightened by what I saw and bailed out hitting the finish button leaving the system trying to recover from a database error. It had not occured to me that I was in a database wizard because I was in new user tunnel vision mode. Yes, even someone with 30 years IT experience goes dumb when facing a new and complex program like OOO. Suggest a simple kiss-off splash on completion of the installation dialog that tells what components are available and where--it would prevent a great deal of aggrevation. Best wishes,
crash reporter was significantly improved since beta2.0, the described behvaiour should not happen anymore. closing for now, please reopen if needed
