Hi there, I saw it and cheered in the hopes that some one would come up with a better answer than I have.
I use open office to do my books and company paperwork. I have to say, that calc rocks my world, but I only half-assed get along with writer. I'd love to dig into it and make it my full time word processer, but to be honest, I can't get past that each line in a seperate edit box thing. Based on earlier reports from the mac visionaries group, this is the way it is, period, and I just cant settle in and get comfortable with it. Sorry I don't have better news for you. I really wish some one had come out with updated info on a fix, but as you saw, no one has had better luck than we have.
