Saving as .docx was not supported by version 3 either.

If you want or need to save and send as docx, take a look at TextMaker, 
from SoftMaker Office. Part of an office suite that includes the word 
processor, a spreadsheet, and a presentation app.


There's a free cut-down version, and a pay version. I think it's worth 
paying for, and have done so. Present  version is 2016. TextMaker reads 
/and writes/ a whole batch of formats. And it doesn't


make you study up and learn a lot of crap about formatting to get your 
work done!

It can be saved as a .doc file.

Re: problem with fractions in spreadsheet

[Brian Barker]

Whenever I've entered a fraction or a mixed number into my

the fraction shows up in the cell as 05/01/32.  Should I enter 6-1/3 
it will show as 6 1/3.  However the screw size 4-40 will show as 
04/01/40.  6 11/16  shows as 6 2/3.  This is not accuracy that is 
possible to use.


You need to appreciate that spreadsheets interpret your input when 
assembling the value to be actually inserted in the cell. By default, 
input sequences that appear to be dates or fractions will be 
interpreted that way. (The same applies to percentages, currency 
amounts, boolean values, and so on.) As well as the input sequence 
being interpreted, the format of the cell is set appropriately. This 
is a regular part of how spreadsheets work.


How can I get the spreadsheet to enter the fractions and mixed 
numbers as written? Format -Numbers-Fractions yields no better results.


That depends on what you need. You talk about "entering fractions" - 
but your screw size is not a fraction, of course, and perhaps none of 
your values are. If you want what you type to appear in the cell 
exactly as it is, you don't want a spreadsheet's normal numeric 
values at all, but text. Format your cells (columns, ranges, 
whatever) as Text *before* you enter the values and they will not be 
(mis)interpreted. Yes, you can use the leading apostrophe trick - 
which has the same effect - but that is intended for occasional 
values that differ from those normally in, say, a column. You will 
generally know in advance that values in a column need to be text and 
entered just as you typed them, and simply formatting the column as 
Text first is much simpler. You need to make simple design decisions 
like this before entering values into any spreadsheet.


There are many sorts of data that look like numbers but are actually 
not; other examples are numeric postal codes or telephone numbers. 
What is the significance of one postal code or telephone number being 
exactly twice another? None at all, as they are not really numbers 
but strings of digits that look like numbers. Another clue is that a 
leading zero on a postal code or telephone number is significant and 
its inclusion or omission changes the meaning and effect.


Note that if you enter "5/32" as text, you will not be able to 
calculate with its value. But in the above scenario you will not want 
to do this. After all, two 4-40 screws do not in any sense make 8-80.

I would venture to say there's a glitch somewhere. It's either in 
the open office or it's in my side. But something is not working at 
a all here. How can I follow up to get it fixed?


There is no glitch. If you enter "3 11/16" you will indeed see "3 
2/3" in the cell display. Select the cell and look in the Input Line. 
You will see "3.6875", which is the correct value. If your values 
really were fractions, you would now have the correct (numeric) value 
in the cell. But cell displays are always rounded, and the reason why 
it appears as it does is that Calc's default Fraction format is "# 
?/?" - which limits the numerator and denominator of the fraction to 
single digits. If you change the Fraction format to "# ??/??" (which 
you can do either before or after you enter the data), you will see 
"3 11/16" displayed in the cell. But since you presumably don't want 
numeric values at all, this is very probably irrelevant.


I trust this helps.

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, 

ich habe eine Frage bezüglich der Business Lizenz. Ich habe heute eine Apache 
OpenOffice 4.1.1 Business bhv Edition gekauft. Dort steht dass es nur für 
Windows geeignet ist. 

Muss ich diese Business Version auf meinen Windows Laptop aufspielen, oder kann 
ich auch online auf meinem Mac (Hauptrechner) die OS X Version 4.1.2 
runterladen? Gilt dann auch die Business - Lizenz (wenn ich sie nur auf dem Mac 
nutze)? 
Falls ich nur die Windows Version für Business nutzen darf - darf ich dann dort 
Vorlagen erstellen und mit der Mac Version verschicken? 

Bitte um genaue Auskunft, da ich keine OpenOffice Business Version für Mac 
bekommen habe!

Vielen Dank. 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen


Johannes Stawinski
