--- Comment #3 from Adalbert Hanßen <adalbert.hanssen at gmx.de> ---
Surprisingly, from the spreadsheet version of my LO Writer table I could copy
the first column to the clipboard after it has been made to contain consecutive
numbers.

Just for analysis I pasted this clipboard content to mousepad, a pure ASCII
editor.

Mousepad then showed me the numbers 1 to 196, each number on a separate line.

My next idea was to introduce one additional step: I marked the complete
content of the file in the mousepad editor: Ctl-A and then Ctl-C to copy it to
the clipboard.

Then I went to my LO Writer window and pasted the numbers 1 to 196 (each on a
separate line) to the first column of the table in the Writer document. Before
I did Ctl-V, I marked the complete first column, which I had prepared initially
to provide space for the line numbering.

And to my great surprise (after the disappointment that pasting from LO Calc
caused a crash) pasting the apparently same content from mousepad worked!

So at least there is a workaround to apply consecutive numbering to a table in
a LO Writer document, but it is a bit awkward. Of course the error itself
should be eradicated after its exact faultiness has been understood.
