5. SaveAs (change the format to Microsoft Word 97/2000/xp/2003)
6. Close the document and then open it

The merge is lost.

Can anyone reproduce that?

No problem with LO 3.4.3 on WinXP Pro. The saved and
open document is the same for me, the merge is preserved.

Thanks.
I guess it works on Windows.
Linux anyone?

Works for me: LO 3.4.3 linux. Also tested by merging the cells in the
rows.
BTW: you might want to let us know which version of LibreOffice you are
using.



3.4.3 for Linux but it is a build for Gentoo from source.


Worked OK with my system.

LibreOffice 3.4.2 OOO340m1 (Build:203) on Ubuntu LTS 10.04

I noted one difference though. In STEP 5 you save as Microsoft Word 97/2000/xp/2003 -- my system has Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP. A subtle difference but maybe you have a different 'Save As...' routine than other people.
