------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Dec 14 19:17:59 -0800 2005 ------- Hi atdsm, mru, and everyone else :)... Thanks for taking a look at the problem. atdsm, I tried your suggestion man (exactly step by step), but it didn't quite work for me. I hope that we are trying to do the same thing. So I attached a couple of files. On my "resume" (2 pages) - I would just like to note that I had problems with the "top" of page 2 only. The rest of the columns in my resume was perfectly fine. I used the columns for the "Company name" and "Date division" FYI. So if it was really an attribute not getting carried over, shouldn't the other columns have been affected as well? It just looks to be location dependent in the document. The sample docs I attached have 6 and 7 pages. I attached 2 files: 1) "OOo_column_problem.odt" - ODT file with my initial problem written in it. 2) "OOo_column_problem_solution.odt" - ODT file with atdsm's suggestion. Save both files into .doc format (97/.../XP) and re-open them. The first .doc should give you "good" columns on pages 1, 5, and 7 while the columns on the other pages are bad. Some pages are empty btw. On page 7, I inserted a little period like I did in my resume to make it to work. Before I did that, page 7 got messed up as well. The second .doc unfortunately doesn't give me the results either. atdsm said it worked for him, so I am guessing there is something I didn't do properly. If you look at the attributes of the columns before converting, the "Evenly Distribute contents to all columns" is UNCHECKED - as atdsm wanted. Also when you open a ".DOC" file in OOo Writer, and check that that "evenly distribute" attribute, it seems to be "checked" for the columns that are "ok". Thanks guys.
