Description arasaka 2008-01-25 20:07:01 UTC 
In short, a spreadsheet pasted as DDE-Link in an ODT document uses the "Repeat 
heading" (Table Format -> Text Flow) option by default. It displays well in the 
ODT. However, inserting the ODT document inserted in a Master Document does not 
display the repeated heading.

@OS: it seems that DDE doesn't support repeated header... Please confirm.

I disagree strongly with the priority setting. At the very least P4 would be
more accurate, although even P4 lists as an example "Bugs that are easy to
workaround". In this case, there is no easy workaround. Not even sure there is a
hard one either...

I confirm this issue is still present in version 2.4.1
Comment 7 arasaka 2009-02-04 21:03:39 UTC 
Just a note to confirm that behaviour is identical in OOo version 3.0.1
