Description Luke 2013-06-29 16:29:45 UTC 
This bug was tested LibreOffice v4.1 RC1 running in windows 7 and XP. It appears that LibreOffice loses formatting when importing MS .docx files. I have attached an example.

Steps to reproduce the bug:
1. Open attached Demo-Hayden-Management.docx document in writer 
2. Open attached Demo-Hayden-Management.docx document in Word2007/Office 365
3. Compare the documents. 

Note from item #5 from the screenshot that the "west" line is missing.

I can confirm this tested using Windows 8 with LibreOffice 4.2.0.0 Version: 4.2.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 9bd0a976017fadf4344cbf6746abd395dfcc3cb7
TinderBox: Win-x86@6, Branch:master, Time: 2013-06-29_22:42:02 and LibreOffice 3.6.7.1.

Actually, it even does look worse in 4.2.0.0

Kind regards,
Joren

Removing everything but table by copy/paste into fresh doc

I created a new doc and pasted the table into it. The result was the same. Interestingly, if you save the file as .odt and take a look at the content.xml, the missing row is still there in the XML.

-<table:table-row table:style-name="Table1.3"><table:covered-table-cell/>
-<table:table-cell table:style-name="Table1.B3" office:value-type="string"><text:p text:style-name="P2">East</text:p></table:table-cell>
-<table:table-cell table:style-name="Table1.C3" office:value
-type="string"><text:p text:style-name="P2">Approved</text:p>

This issue is still reproducible with:

   - Libreoffice 4.2.2.1 Build ID: 3be8cda0bddd8e430d8cda1ebfd581265cca5a0f

but not with:
   - Libreoffice 4.3.0.0.alpha0 Build ID: aeab0183e86fe011d32058864c02b2de4da32dc9
