In OOo 2.3 on Ubuntu Feisty, I cannot copy a table in Writer and paste
it into Calc.

The problem seems to be that I cannot satisfactorily copy the table in
Writer. When I mouse over it (or shift-arrow over it), it get selected
in am manner similar to photographs: alternating blue/transparant dots
over the table (not full-reverse highlight like text). Note that I
_can_ select and edit individual cell contents.

The document in question is a doc file created in MS Office 2003. Is
this a known problem for these documents? Is there a workaround?

Thanks in advance.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
