------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Nov 29 07:34:38 -0800 2005 ------- My girlfriend has found a nice feature implemented in M$Office which is not present in Open Office: In M$ Office: You copy to clipboard (CTRL+C) a few lines in an e.g. notepad-written text; lines with a text like this: <begin doc.txt> 1 2 3 4 <end doc.txt> Now you switch to Word, select four table cells in a column and do CTRL+V. The lines from the text in the notepad will be copied into the cells - "1" to the first cell, "2" to the cell below the first one, etc. This does not work in OpenOffice forcing my girlfriend to use M$ Word. She tried to switch to OO since it has better equation editor compared to Word (writing commands to typeset equations seems her faster... me as well); however, she is a phycisist and needs to fill large tables in text documents with numbers computed in Matlab. Convert text to table is not possible to use as there is a need to fill various columns of an existing table. And since this nice feature is not in OO, she got back to M$ Word (with a sight). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
