Re: [libreoffice-users] merged cells in Writer (saved as Word 97/2000/xp/2003)

I used 

LibreOffice 3.3.1 
OOO330m19 (Build:8)
tag libreoffice-3.3.1.2

to create the document and reopened in LO and MS Office 2007.  Everything worked as expected, i.e. 
merge not lost.


My system is HP DV9910 laptop Vista sp2.
