Dear Sirs,

Thank you for reading this discussion.

I am notorious about not updating programs unless I need to.  I used Writer 3.0
for a very long time.  My friend uses Word 2010.  She would send me her
documents, I would edit them using the comment feature (ctl-alt-c).  I would
then save the file in Word format and send it back to her.  This went fine.

Recently I updated to 4.0, everything in this regard failed.  The comments made
in OpenOffice get trashed when the document is opened by Word 2010.  They show
a space between each letter.  There is a blank line between each line of text
that can not be deleted.  And, the words that were once in one comment box are
now spread through multiple boxes, pushing the text from box to box until at
the last box all over spill text is deleted. Then, when opening the file again
after Word has opened it, the problem is now also displayed in Writer.

So, I updated again to 4.1, but the problem persists.

This issue is forcing me to work in Word because customers don't want to deal
with that mess.

Thank you.
