------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Sep 13 16:47:10 -0700 2005 ------- I'm not sure what's usually done in US English, but in UK English either is acceptable. A long time ago there was a very strict rule that when an abbreviation includes the last letter, you don't use a full stop, but that rule has long since been relaxed and it's now a matter of individual taste. Anyway, I've worked out how to tweak my individual copy of Openoffice to deal with this now. I'll leave it us to you to decide whether to include this as the default for future Openoffice releases. The only point I will make in its favour is that anyone who writes "Mr." or "Mrs." almost certainly means the full stop as an abbreviation. I can't see any conceivable way that the full stop could indicate the end of a sentence and make sense. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
