Description bebabo 2006-01-12 14:45:26 UTC 
1) create new document with a table
2) get some text into the clipboard (e.g. 'hello' from notepad)
3) select multiple cells in the table
4) paste

Result: the first cell correctly contains 'hello', but subsequent cells get
'h#e#l#l#o#'

I still cannot reproduce it (current m157 on Win 2000)
Please check this in a current version and feel free to reopen if it still
happens. Please then attach a sample document.

MRU->ES: this is quite easy to reproduce. Copy a short string (like 12345) from
Windows Notepad to clipboard. In Writer create a 5x5 table. Then select cells
A1:A5 and paste Clipboard content. See the result as described above.

Comment 14 eric.savary 2006-03-23 11:15:42 UTC 
Thousand excuses!!! I mixed up NOTEpad and WORDpad.
Now reproducible.

BTW: same result on Linux betwee Kate (KDE ASCII editor) and OOo.

Not broken (Also reproduce in OOo 1.0.3)

Comment 16 luketheduke 2006-05-19 19:53:36 UTC 
I'd like to add that MS Word notices if there are tabs in the pasted text and
splits the content into the right cells, as I described in now closed <a
href="http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=65593">Issue 65593</a>.

This behaviour should be copied, I think.

Comment 19 cno 2007-12-01 19:06:18 UTC 
Hi,
While lokking at some table issues, I checked this in 2.3.0 and 680m8.
I can't see the undesired behaviour -> probably fixed?
Comment 20 andreas.martens 2007-12-03 09:21:25 UTC 
No, I am still able to reproduce this behavior :-( 
- even with OOo2.3.1
Comment 21 cno 2007-12-03 09:30:59 UTC 
Sorry, I copied from the wrong source. Indeed the problem still excists.
