Re: Office Calc crash
Elaine, Unfortunately you are turning to the wrong mailing list. Apache is a large community of ~300 projects, of which Apache Open Office is a relatively small part. This mailing list discusses issues that are common across all projects, and not specific to any particular piece of software. I think you should contact, us...@openoffice.apache.org, which might require you to so called subscribe first to be guaranteed to reach it. See http://openoffice.apache.org/mailing-lists.html#users-mailing-list-public for details on that.

When reopening it, lots of entries were gone. That is a whole day work. I have used this list for follow up of out coming mail. In all, 60 companies are gone along with their addresses, phone numbers and contact person. I was not able to retrieve a previous version. It is saved on a USB key who was not saving previous copies (Now it is!) Is there somehow a way to retrieve those data? And by the way, I have experienced lots of software crashes with the Calc program. Thanks for your help! Elaine -- Niclas Hedhman, Software Developer http://zest.apache.org - New Energy for Java
