--- Comment #12 from Justin L <[email protected]> ---
If you know what is wrong with the document, it is fairly easy to select a
range of cells and turn the Format - Character - hidden property off.

If you don't know what is wrong the document, I imagine it would be hard to
figure out no matter whether you can (easily) get the cursor into the cell or
not.

Even in MS Word 2003 I had to select the entire cell in order to turn off the
hidden format, so the method of "fixing" this document is already the same for
both Word and LO - just that LO can't just select only the hidden cell (at
least not "out of the box").

I am completely baffled why "nothing content" has been marked as hidden in this
document. Lowering the importance since it is an odd-ball example dealing with
character hiding - which by definition is not a "simple document". Also
lowering it because anyone intentionally using hidden text in LO should know
about Tools - Options - Writer - Formatting Aids - Display Formatting: Hidden
characters. Things work "as expected" when that is turned on.
