------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Jan 20 17:01:22 -0800 2007 ------- Test with Word97 and with Word2003 on XP and with OOo2.1 Situation: Pages with 3 Columns. Each column is getting filled with a two column table in Ms Word. Tables represent months with their dates. No column or page breaks used. After opening the document in OOo 2.1 on page2 the Table is split for no apparent reason between row 10 and 11, causing the layout to be badly disrupted. The split is bad that it happens even when deleting the contents of the cells and surrounding paragraph, suggesting that there is something happening in the table... The workaround - for advanced users - is in this case: On the split table: Table Properties > Tab [Text Flow] > uncheck 'Allow table to split across tables and columns. Strangely: setting this setting back to it's original setting does NOT split the table again. Also an undo is powerless. Some research brought up a hint that: Word only has the 'Allow row to break' option for table properties. OOo has the 'Allow table to split' AND 'allow row to break' option. A silly hack could be to set the 'allow table to break default to off --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
