It's rather common problem, that I can't copy -> paste content from one writer table to another, like in example in attachment. When I copy all cells from the first table and push paste button, for instance, in the second row (next one after heading row) of third column, nothing happens. What can be a reason for that and is there any easy way to solve this?

For what it's worth, try as I may, I cannot (with my version 3.0 on Windows XP) reproduce what you describe - even using your own sample document. I can create a whole range of different effects using different Paste options, but "nothing" is not one of them. You may want to experiment with using Edit | Paste or Edit | Paste Special... (or Ctrl+V or Ctrl+Shift+V) or even the options provided by the drop-down menu next to the Paste button in the Standard toolbar. Do any of these do anything for you? (I see some unpredictable effects, where Writer appears to be remembering how something was last done - but never nothing.)

I suppose if you see nothing happen, then the most likely explanation is with the copy operation having failed rather than with any problem with the paste. What happens if you instead paste into an open area of the document - not in a table, that is? Does that confirm that the copy was successful?

You may want to say what version of OpenOffice you are using - and what platform. (I think you may be working on a Mac.)

I trust this helps.
