Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 80050
Writer freezes/loops when deleting a table containing ertically merged cells

1)In the Writer,insert a new 4*4 table 2)merge cells B2:C3 3)select menu:Table->Delete->Table, the OOo will freeze.
MRU->AMA: it looks that deleting any table having vertically merged cells will end in a loop. I gues, this is a showstopper for 2.3....
Fixed in CWS swqbf102. ndtbl.cxx
I saw simlar things in writer today (m222) The only possibilliy was to kill the prozess and to lost the whole work I have done after the last save.
ama->mechtilde: Sorry to hear that :-( If you are working with our developer build (until my fix is integrated) you should avoid this table/delete/table for tables with merged/splitted cells. If you want to delete a table completely, you should not use table/delete/table nor table/delete/row. You can use table/delete/columns without risk.
Ready for QA.
Verified fix in CWS swqbf102.
Checked fix in 680m224.
