------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri May 25 08:16:11 +0000 2007 ------- FORMULA FIELDS WON'T INSERT, OR CALCULATE PROPERLY IN TABLES. I am using Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) with OOo 2.1. To reproduce the problem, open this document: http://members.optuszoo.com.au/~theelectronicco/table.odt It is a sheet of labels kept in format using a table. Change the serial number of the first label, the other labels should change serial number to match, incremented by 1 each label. Notice that the first label in the middle column has the same serial number as the first label in the first column (startsernum) even though it is set to [ startsernum + 11 ], Interestingly if you replace the defective serial number field with standard text, the first label in the right column then calculates incorrectly. You can muck around with replacing the fields, and all looks fine until you try to print, then OOo recalculates the fields, and prints the defective value (that's when I start banging my head on the desk :-) ). Also, I was unable to insert the formula fields directly, I had to insert them outside the table, then cut and paste them into place. To replicate this, go to Insert->Fields->Other->(Variables Tab)-> Select "Insert Formula" in the left hand list, type your preferred formula (try startsernum + 10), click on a position in one of the table cells and click insert. Nothing happens, but if you do the same thing, but instead of clicking inside a cell, click outside the table, then click insert, it works fine. Keep up the good work. I am trying to stop using ms office all together, but I do a lot of label and form printing, and OOo is not quite stable enough yet, but I'm sure it will be soon. Many thanks for your hard work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
