--- Comment #4 from asuresh4@asu.edu ---
I successfully replicated the bug in the following working environment and
configuration

Operating system : Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1
System Type : 64 bit Operating System
Open Office Version : 4.0.1

I replicated the bug in the following manner :

1.    Created an open office text document (with .ODT extension)
2.    Inserted Table 1 using the table option from the menu bar. I created a
2*2 table with the columns/rows named “Name” and “Age”
3.    Inserted Table 2 using the table option from the menu bar. I created a
2*2 table with the columns/rows named “Name” and “Age”
4.    Then I merged the table using the following steps :
To merge two tables:
Delete the blank paragraph between the tables. You must use the Delete key (not
the Backspace key) to do this.
Select a cell in the second table.
Right-click and select Merge Table in the pop-up menu. You can also use Table >
Merge Table from the menu bar.
5.    When the two tables are merged, it contains 4 columns/rows with “Name”,
“Age”, “Name”, “Age”. The duplication is not removed.
This would be a very important bug from the user’s perspective as it would help
the user to merge tables without duplication of data. This would come in very
handy when the user is trying to merge database tables with common data in it.
This will help the user verify results from the database.
