When you copy several cells from Calc to Writer it is not possible to paste directly into an existing table so that it appears as expected - instead all pasted cells become a table within a cell in the existing table. Steps to repeat: 1. Copy a table from Calc and paste as formatted text in Writer 2. Add a column to the table in Writer 3. Copy a few cells from a column in Calc and paste as formatted text into the empty column in Writer. 4. A new table is created in Writer inside a cell in the exisiting table. NB: pasting using different options at step 3 does not help Expected behaviour: cells from Calc end up as separate cells in the Writer table To avoid the problem (but not ideal): 1. Copy a table from Calc and paste as formatted text in Writer 2. Add a column to the table in Writer 3. Copy a few cells from a column in Calc and paste as formatted text below the exisitng table in Writer (so a new table is created). 4. Copy the cells in the new table. 5. Paste into the original table. 6. Delete the new table.
On LibO 3.4 rc1 Mandriva 64 bit all reproducible except that on step 4 table is inserted as text into the cell.

[This is an automated message.] This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases. Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1 more detail on this bulk operation: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/RFC-Operation-Spamzilla-tp3607474p3607474.html
reproduced on LibO 3.5.0 beta 1 table inserts as separate table instead of inserting in cells (as reported initially)
[Reproducible] with Server Installation of "LibreOffice 3.6.0.2 rc German UI/Locale [Build-ID: 815c576] on German WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) Already reproducible with OOo 3.1.1 (and already 1.1.5), so I think problem is inherited from OOo. Any copy / paste of adjacent cells from Calc into an empty table in Writer will not be into adjacent cells, but into a singl cell. To check simply create an empty 5x5 Table in WRITER and try to paste a 3 cells row or column into first cell of Writer table. All contents always will be pasted into a single cell. @Michael: Please set Status to ASSIGNED and add yourself to "Assigned To" if you accept this Bug or forward the Bug if it's not your turf.
