Hi, When i tried Openoffice i found a couple of show stoppers: the paragraphs or even new lines were presented as separate edit boxes making it impossible to read using the "say all" command vo+a. I couldn't select long blocks of text to delete, move or otherwise manipulate, thereby making this function practically useless. This is in the openoffice word processor. Since others can use it, it would be nice to know what in the world i do wrong, or if there's some setting somewhere i need to change. I definitely prefer Pages for word processing, though i mostly do simple text writing, so textedit is enough for me. /Krister
