> 7. Click the Borders tab.

> 9. In the “Left” value enter a known working value such as 1.5” (my other
> columns read Right=0.10” Top=0.05” Bottom=0.05”) and click OK. (column
> should add space)
> 
> 10. Notice that the cell gets larger with the indent is has placed to the
> left of the contents.
> 
> 11. Repeat this with the value 1.97” grows the table cell yet again.
> 
> 12. Enter a number larger than 1.97” in the left indent. Notice no change.

XP SP3 against Aoo trunk build 1376366, after step 12, the table cell shrink to
the original value 0.4", but not leave at 1.97". This should be fixed

> 
> 13. Click back into the properties and notice that the value has changed
> itself back to 1.97”.
> 
> Follow-up tests:
> 
> 1. Tested without step four of spowers2004 replication steps and results
> seem to be completely consistent.
> 
> 2. Tested other cells besides just the left (top,right,bottom) and the exact
> same results are achieved.
> 
> 3. Tested with 9 columns and 5 rows and the same results were seen.
