Description capstone737 2004-01-08 03:08:30 UTC 
I have document that was created in MS Word 97 and does not open correctly in
OOo. The single page consists of a table and when opened in OOo, there is only
one row instead of two and it is now a two page document.

I will attach a copy of the file with this report.

Cannot reproduce the problem with OOo 1.1. The table has two rows and the whole
doc two pages. See attached screenshot taken under WinXP with Word XP and OO 1.1.0.

Comment 5 capstone737 2004-01-12 07:56:18 UTC 
Curious. I have reopened the file and there are now 2 x rows. However, the
document was created in Word97 and is only one page, but in OOo it is 2 pages. I
will attach a screen shot, including the page settings.

It seems to be something special with Word 97. I digged out a version of it on
one of our older machines and opened your file there. Initially the doc showed
as one page, but when scrolling down, then there were two pages; Word XP showed
two pages from the beginning. Odd... It looks like a problem of Word97, thus I
close the issue.
