------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Mar 28 20:10:01 +0000 2008 ------- This is still not fixed on OOo 2.3.1 on Windows 2000 and Windows XP, using a variety of computers (mine and at university computer labs). The problem does not exist on Linux, where Ctrl-Shift+u and hex works properly. There is no way to insert characters in the Windows version except by Insert > Special Character, or using Windows Character Map utility. Both are extremely clumsy if you need to enter special characters a lot, as I do for linguistics work. For me this is a showstopper. I'm having to use MS Office instead, much as I'd prefer to use OOo. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
