Hi :)
+1  
The "When in Writer" should be taken out of that 2nd and 4th examples.  

I just quickly tested in all the apps except Base and it works the same in all 
of them.  In Calc you only notice it if the cursor is in the formula-bar / 
function-bar, whatever you call that big 'white' field at the top where you 
type in the contents of the cell if not typing directly into the cells!  So, it 
works in all of them (not just Writer).  
Regards from 
Tom :)
