If you have merged cells spanning columns you cannot insert a new column unless 
you unmerge the cells first.

For instance say you have 4 cells merged (A1, B1, C1, & D1) and you need to add 
a new column between columns B & C you cannot unless you unmerge the cells 
mentioned.

This is a definite limitation and needs addressed. Excel has let you inert 
columns between merged cells as far back as at least 97. 

I have recently switched my office over to OpenOffice 3 from MS Office 2000 and 
have been getting this complaint often.

Now before anyone tried to close this as a duplicate. Every issue matching this 
has been closed and referred to Issue 2131. Issue 2131 is about merging a cell 
with cells that are already merged. It has nothing to do with inserting columns 
into merged cells. PLEASE DO NOT CLOSE THIS AS A DUPLICATE WITHOUT CONFIRMING 
THE ISSUE. Issues 10858 & 95062 were closed as duplicates of 2131 and they 
shouldn't have been.
