I was unable to replicate the bug. My device that I used is a 4 to 5year old
laptop windows 7 64 bit laptop ASUS. I used the attachment and I made my own 2
page word document with tables and information in them. When I opened the same
document using OpenOffice 4.0.1 the table shows right up. Although there is
some minor formatting issue which is easily fixed.

Version: 4.0.1
Hardware: PC Windows 7

I was unable to recreate the bug using the multiple test files I created. I
tested with multiple tables on 2 pages as well as one table which spanned both
pages and each loaded perfectly fine. Though there was a discrepancy between
the outline color of the table as Writer showed a red outline when MS Word had
shown orange. This however, is probably unrelated to this issue.

2 page word doc with large table.

Attached doc in order to view color discrepancies between MS Word and Writer if
necessary
