Misaligned table from importing .doc file

Hi There, Using Version 2.03 and a document with tables, the formatting of the tables overlay each other to create confusing output. The document was created in Word 2003 and displays correctly. I will attach the Word Document, PDF Output how this is formatted in Word 2003 and the Formatting as it displays in OO2.03 Kind Regards Jason

Confirmed with OOo-Dev 2.0.3 (680m176 b9050), WinXP. Opened the attached test file. Table seems jumbled up- wrong.
Problem is, that both tables are formatted to have text-flow around them. This is not possible in Writer, thus the import has a workaround - the tables are placed inside frames (See issue 13791). Unfortunately the tables do not have position attributes, so the frames cannot be positioned correctly in this case. We have to wait issue 13791 to be "fixed" to see the attached document correctly. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 13791 ***
Closing duplucate.
