[discuss] Slow formatting of Reportsin OOo Base.

2006-02-20 Thread shreeseva
Hello to all,
I am experiencing that OOo Base reports takes long time to format the pages for 
previewing. Why?
Is there any solution to this? I am connecting to ODBC datasources(normally 
MySQL). Please help.
Thanks.

[discuss] Help for calc

2006-02-20 Thread Donald R. Fredkin
I am unable to access help for calc in OOo 2.0.1. I have reinstalled and 
even downloaded a fresh copy and the problem persists. I do not have this 
problem with 2.0, and I do not have this problem with any other component 
of 2.0.1. I have installed OOo on my Win2000 computer.

Am I alone with this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

It seems that there might happen something in the extensions incubator

Koper. Beside that I think that there are not so much useful OOo
extensions ATM. I hope this will change in the near future.

Quoting Chad Smith

I sold about 6 at $100 - $150 and another 4 or 5 at $30 - $60.

What I did was I put it up on eBay, and instead of starting the bidding
at $.99 or $5 like most people do who sell OOo on eBay, I started the
biddind at $29.99 and then I put a Buy it Now! option at $150 -
several sold that way.

[Chad is quoting US dollars.   Joel is quoting New Zealand dollars.]

I thought somebody had posted a message saying that they had sold OOo
for $1500, but I can't find it.  :(

yes we have discuss this idea extensively and because of the lack of
resources we decided we can't go that route.

Not that I know of.
Both free and non free add-ins exist side by side, so that alone will 
make it not likely.
However, this http://www.ooomacros.org/ is a good place to look for the 
free stuf.

[discuss] Telugu Language Support

2006-02-20 Thread Sree Sistla
Hi
I like Open Office Package a lot more than MS Office Package. Telugu is one of 
the major languages, spoken in southern part of Indian sub-continent of Asia. 
About 30 million people in India speak this language as mother tongue in one 
State alone. Please provide support for this language, as Microsoft Office 
package supports Telugu as a Browser.
Will you please let me know if this project is underway or not. As a matter of 
fact, Microsoft has a RD out fit in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh (Telugu speaking 
State) of India.
With Best Regards 
Sree Sistla

I'm not sure what you want in the way of support.

Teluga can be selected as the default language, _if_ CTL language is enabled.
There are two IME's that can be used for Teluga input

*  Indic Transliterator
This macro was written by the BharateyaOOo Team with CDAC, Bangalore,
India.  It can be obtained from http://www.ncb.ernet.in/bharateeyaoo.

It supports Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Gujarati,Telugu, and Malayalam.
Text is written in the Latin writing system.  It converts that to the
correct language.

* Aksharamala
Indic Language IME created by Aksharamala  LTD.
Download from  http://www.aksharamala.com/index.php
ITRAN support.

This has support for the following languages:
Assamese, Bengali, Gujurati, Gurumukhi, Hindi, Kannada,
Malayalam, Marathi, Sanskrit, Tamil, Teluga, Urdu

I _think_ I saw spell checkers for some of the Indus Valley languages,
but I don't remember which ones.  :(

I don't remember if it supports Teluga numbering.   If not, that can
be filed as an issue.  [This would be trivial to add.]

There is not a Teluga user interface yet.
For a Teluga language user interface, a l10n team will have to be
created. You'll have to talk with the Indic OOo team about that.
