Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
I have a document that was created in MS Word 97 and when opened in OOo, the bottom of the document is all messed up. I will enclose it with this report.
Created attachment 9364 [details] The MS Word 97 document.

I can Reproduce the problem on OpenOffice 1.1 RC4(default Install, US), Win XP Pro Sp1. (And MS Office XP Sp2). It is real problem The bottom table is weird. some is moved up, and the options is different
MRU->OD: the table at the bottom of the body text flots behind the frames. I think, this shouldn't be in this case.
mad esummary more meaningful.

The behaviour of tables and objects with wrapping differs between Writer and Word. We're planning a lot of improvement in im-/export but if we're able to fix this problem? We've to do some more analyses.
Created attachment 14016 [details] This Word DOC file appears to reproduce this bug with a simpler test case.
BTW, I am running build 680 on Windows XP.
Hmm. Nevermind. I loaded this document with Word 2002 SP2, turned on the showing of text boudaries and found that it looks exectly the same as what is being shown in build 680. Sorry for the noise.
re-targeted to "OO later".
