Fedora 14 x86_64; OOo 3.3 (from OOo, not from repository).

I have used Writer for years and am pretty adept at it. But I doubt I
have launched Calc more than once a year, and then only to open an
Excel file that someone sent me.

I needed to tabulate some expenses by year for the years 1996-2011,
about 20 to 100 expenses for each year. I thought it would be easier to
do in Calc than in a Writer table. I finished 1996 and there are 35
rows. I tried to use Sheet 2 for 1997, but couldn't figure out how to
transfer the row and column formatting from Sheet 1 (1996), so I gave
up and decided just to use Writer tables. It took me a lot of work to
format the cells in Sheet 1 and I was trying to avoid having to
duplicate the effort for Sheet 2.

I tried to get the data into Writer where I understand better how to
do things, but I can't get the data from Calc into Writer as a Writer
table. I can select the cells in Calc and copy to the clipboard, but
when I paste into Writer it comes in as a graphic, not as a table. 

How can get the data into Writer as text or as a Writer table?
