Doesn't do it for me.

An object cannot exceed one page in size.

Objects may well not exceed one page, but why then r the page numbers keep
increasing in the status bar? It goes on increasing till I stop by someway,
for example by pressing esc key. Is this a bug?

Let me give a clearer way to recreate this issue, as this only happens with
merged cells.

Scenario 1

Insert a picture into a doc and try to enlarge it by dragging it beyong the
page border. Size of the pic enlarges till it reaches the page size.

Scenario 2

Insert a table (3 rows,2 cols), merge the left most cols of two rows. Insert
a picture into that cell, and as before try to enlarge it by dragging it
beyong the page border. Insert a picture into a doc and try to enlarge it by
dragging it beyong the page border. Page numbers keeps increasing in the
status bar.


Thanx in advance
