--- Comment #3 from CSK <sa...@gmail.com> ---
I tried replicating the bug with below configuration,

Configuration:

Product: Open Office, Microsoft Word Processor 
Date of Test: 09/22/2014
Version: Open Office Version: 4.1.1 AOO411m6, Build ID 9775, Released
2014-08-21 and AOO410m18, Build ID 9764
Microsoft Word Processor 2010 Version 14.0.4734.1000 (32-bit)
Platform: Windows 7 Home Premium – 64 bit

Description:
The original report describes that when a calendar is created using Microsoft
word and tried to open the document using Open office. Found that it was not
displayed correctly. Some part of the text was displayed outside the boundary
and heading appears on the separate page. When I opened the original document
in both the version of OO (4.1.0 and 4.1.1) I could see the header separately
as said in the report, However I tried replicating the bug since the original
report did not mention about the calendar template name, I couldn’t able to use
the exact calendar template used by the reporter.
I created a word document (document1.doc) and inserted a calendar template
“12-month basic calendar (any year)” in the available pool at office.com
templates and opened the same with open office 4.1.1 and found that there is no
problem with the heading placement and text out of boundary but there are other
problems ,
(1)    There are visible boxes separately for date area, text area and Month
area but those are not there in the actual word document. 
 And when I created another document in Microsoft 2010 format (document2.docx)
with same calendar template and opened in OO, I found even more problems such
as 
(1)    There are visible boxes separately for date area, text area and Month
area but those are not there in the actual word document.
(2)    The days are appearing on the first rows on date columns for every
month. Example “Wednesday” is appearing on the first row of the date columns
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) for January month. 
(3)    Also there are series of digits appearing on every month on the last two
rows. Example : “24243125” on the date column 25, “24243126” on the date column
26 and so on for the month of January.
Steps I followed in replicating the bug:
Step 1: I created a word document and selected a calendar template “12-month
basic calendar (any year)” in the available pool at office.com templates and
saved in lower version of Microsoft word 97-2003 as (document1.doc)

Step 2: I created word document and selected a calendar template “12-month
basic calendar (any year)” in the available pool at office.com templates and
saved in Microsoft word 2010 as (document2.docx)
Step3: I inserted some text in the date column with different font’s size
randomly and saved both the document. (see document1.doc and document2.docx for
sample text)
Step 4: I opened the document1.doc using Open office 4.1.1 and I could see
boxes separately for date area, text area and Month area but those are not
there/visible in the actual word document but the text and the heading was
correct.(see document1.odt)
Step 5: I opened document2.docx using Open office 4.1.1 and I could see days
are appearing on the first rows on date columns for every month. Example
“Wednesday” is appearing on the first row of the date columns (1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
6, 7) for January month also there are series of digits appearing on every
month on the last two rows. Example: “24243125” on the date column 25,
“24243125” on the date column 26 and so on for the month of January but the
text and the heading was correct(see document2.odt)
Follow-up Test:
I tried with different calendar templates on two different windows-7 machines
(32 bit and 64 bit) available at the office.com and each one behaves
differently. For Example I tried with calendar template “Monthly Calendar
(Modern Solid design)”, when I saved the document in lower version of Microsoft
97-2003 format (document3.jpg) and opening in Open office 4.1.1 shows no
issues(document3oo.jpg) but when I saved the word document in 2010
(document4docx.jpg) format and opening in Open office 4.1.1
shows(document4oo.jpg) the document to be corrupted.
Speculation:
I found a confirmed bug “25932”which was reported in 2004 as an enhancement
type stating that Open office needs Calendar wizard in writer. So I speculate
that Open office still does not have calendar wizard program and it works
unevenly when a word document is opened with OO.
