No, all I say is that the user defined functions are in the wrong 
library. The code can not be found which raises #NAME errors because of 
the unknown function names.
After moving the module to Standard and reloading the document, all 
the cells are calculated, albeit very, very slowly because Basic is 
inappropriate for this type of cell functions.

Just a quick note to you, Alisha:  your reply came only to me.  I think you 
might have clicked 'Reply' when you answered, but it's better to click 'Reply 
All'.  Normally it's okay to click 'Reply' on messages from the mailing list, 
if you are subscribed to it.  You're apparently not subscribed yet, so your 
messages have to be approved by a moderator before they get to the list.  Once 
you're subscribed, you'll get all your messages from the list and send them all

the person who sent you the email.  (You can subscribe by sending an empty

presumably the one you're using.)

If you check the list after you get this email, you'll see what I mean.  Your

I don't know about the three programs you mention.  They might be specialist 
versions.  But if you have installed Ubuntu, you already have the default 
Nautilus installed, the one I mean and the one Tom Davies refers to in his post 
(see the mailing list).  Just double click on, say, your Home icon, and 
Nautilus will open.  It looks and acts rather like Windows Explorer.  If it's 
not on your desktop, you'll find Home under Places on the menu.  You'll also 
find Documents there, and it's likely your LibreOffice documents have landed 
there anyway, so you can open that folder instead.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Working on an archive site/pages for LO and the DVD[s] I have been working with

2011-10-07 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
Good work chap! :)  It's good to see all that work will remain available for a 
good long time :)

I think you are thinking of Debian, this is LO and uses a different system.  
Stable and Old are not always inter-changeable.    

As far as i can tell the 3.4.x branch has never been claimed to have long-term 
support.  Patches, updates and such are never likely to be back-ported to that 
branch.  Although that is not really an issue as LO doesn't seem to do updates 
anyway.  It's the long-term support that makes something stable and thus 
useful to corporate clients.  

At the outset the 3.3.x branch was claimed to have long term support of up to 1 
year from release date.  Quite what that support means in a project that 
develops so much so fast that it has no time for minor updates is unclear.  The 
3.4.3 is claimed to be stable but again it's unclear what that means.  
Perhaps LO will decide whether to use the Debian or the Ubuntu plan or make a 
new one.  At the moment it's just unclear or at least not obvious.  

On the plus side it is relatively trivial to test new releases and then 
roll-out upgrades without messing-up peoples settings or even to revert back to 
previous releases if a serious problem happens.  People seldom need to be on 
the same release at the same time in order to share stuff but to create some 
things initially you might need the latest.  


The Ubuntu model differs from the Debian one by having strictly scheduled 
releases every 6 months.  These are it's equivalent of Development releases 
and have a limited shelf life of 'only' 18months.  Every 2 years (2006, 2008, 
2010) one of their 6 monthlies is developed as an LTS so more effort goes 
into making it more solid so that it will last longer.  More importantly during 
the 3 years after release any important patches and updates writtten for any of 
the normal 6monthlies gets back-ported to the supported LTSes and some updates 
and patches get written specifically for those LTSes.  In around 2005 or before 
it was decided that so much work was going to be focused on the LTS that there 
would only be 1 release that year and it would be pushed back 2 months to June 
making it 6.06 LTS rather than having a 6.04 LTS and a 6.10 (err 
normal/development/6monthly).  Technical support and documentation also 
continue to be developed for the LTSes
 but i think it's the updates including the back-ported ones that are the 
crucial part of claiming that a release is stable.

So, Ubuntu has a system that is clear and obvious to non-geeky corporate 
clients.  It gives them confidence in planning for the future, such as when to 
schedule a roll-out of upgrades across a large number of machines.  They also 
gain confidence knowing that if threats develop or accidents happen then 
updates will happen 'automatically' and they can rely on getting tech support 
if needed.  

Of course the flip-side, as most non-business types appreciate, is that the 
product might be better sometimes with a little more work which might take 5 
mins or might take 5 months.  Most OpenSource projects (before Ubuntu) were 
quite happy delaying releases until they were ready with the better product.  
It's more rigorous and the product has better integrity but it is exactly the 
opposite of corporate culture and totally beyond their understanding.  They see 
it as lazy and unpredictable even tho that misses the point completely.  
Ubuntu's answer was to 'freeze' development of each project at a point the 
product is good enough and then the next release hopefully contains the 
better product.  

The 3.4.3 is the best release to use.  I'm not sure it's appropriate to 
describe one branch as better than another for any particular reason now that 
the 3.4.3 is claimed to be stable (whatever they mean by that).  Existing users 
of 3.3.0 and 3.3.1 will need to start thinking about details of upgrading soon 
as their year is almost up already.  3.3.2 and 3.3.3 need to start planning if 
they haven't already.  My plan is to sitwait for the Ppa to give me a new one 
but i have already downloaded the 3.4.3 for both Windows and Debian-family 
(Ubuntu) and saved it to the network so i can upgrade if i happen to have time 
and access to a particular machine.  Not exactly a good corporate strategy and 
not a great plan for places that have a lot of machines!  

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

Fw: Re: [libreoffice-users] delete/trash

2011-10-07 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
You don't need to install anything.  You already have all you need for this.  

Just open the folder and delete from the folder instead of trying to use a 
dialogue-box such as the Save As ...  dialogue-box.  


Many people are familiar with the concept of web-browser as a generic term 
covering Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Safari, and so on.  Sadly 
the term file-browser is not so well known and people often get confused when 
it is used.  

It doesn't help that MS cleverly gave their file-browser almost identically the 
same name as their web-browser so people often get those 2 muddled up.  Also 
Windows Explorer doesn't really describe what it does.  A window could be so 
many different things that it's just confusing.  Famously the call from tech 
support guy that ended a phone call with  ... and now just open the window 
and then heard a creakign chair, footsteps and suddenly much louder bird-song.  
When you open an app it usually opens a window on your screen.  Windows 
Explorer doesn't explore those.  Nautilus is not very descriptive either but 
at least there is no mistaking it for Firefox.  

So, i think James was trying to be helpful by avoiding the generic term 
file-browser by naming the specific one that you are using and guessed it 
would be the default one for Ubuntu.  

Often it's difficult to guess who has which especially when people can so 
easily add different ones.  Sometimes people say they are using Ubuntu when 
they are using Xubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu, Edubuntu, one of the Spanish 
Government distros, Mint or another one that was/is based on Ubuntu.  Not all 
use Nautilus of course but all work in very much the same way.  

Often being too specific ends up being confusing and just plain wrong.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi :)
You can open Nautilus by just opening any folder.  That opens the file-browser 
called Nautilus.  Hopefully you can navigate to your files in there.  

Other file-browsers are good too but it's worth sticking with the default one 
until you have got the idea.  Ubuntu's default is Nautilus, Xubuntu's is 
Thunar, Kubuntu's is either Konqueror or Dolphin i'm never sure and it's not 
something you really need to know unless you are using that particular distro.  

Generally you can't right-click on stuff in the save/open dialogue boxes in 
GnuLinux but you can from the normal file-browser.  At 1st i found that quite 
limiting but then i found the file-browser can have tabs like web-browsers do 
and that made up for it.  :)

Tom :)

Well, I suppose that depends on whether you consider 14 year old

 Don't worry about not being able to try out suggestions straight-away.  Just
 let us know what you were able to try after you have tried it.  The list is
 likely to still be here! (barring world-ending calamity or the sky falling
 on our heads).  A bit more info would be great.  
 
 People often don't accept that things are not always 100% perfect all the
 time and may need trouble-shooting to find the cause.  The actual fixing is
 usually fairly quick once the problem is identified.  One office worker
 (quite high up in the chain too) told me his machine was completely dead
 and totally useless but it took me 3 mouse-clicks to fix it when he finally
 stopped ranting and let me actually see the problem.  Down-time was about 2
 days, fix took 1 minute.
 
 If the user blocks access to the machine it's usually best to walk away or
 offer to take the machine to a shop to get it fixed.  It might cost money
 unnecessarily but it beats making an enemy.

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Working on an archive site/pages for LO and the 
DVD[s] I have been working with


I have had the idea for a few months now, so I figured it was time to start 
working on it.

The original NA-DVD site has a set of archive pages for the installs that went 
into the NA-DVD[s].  There are all of the OSs and the language and help packs 
that were linked within the default install page[s].

This version of the site pages will have the contents of the DVDs, but will 
have installs for:
3.3.2, 3.3.3, 3.3.4
3.4.1, 3.4.2, 3.4.3
plus the new ones when they come out.

See what you think.  I need to work on the wording to describe the differences 
between the 3.3.x line and the 3.4.x line.  I could use some words to describe 
what line is best to use where.  I know that soon the 3.4.x line will be 
enterprise ready and the most stable and cutting edge words soon will 
not be the best.  Also, when 3.5.x line comes out, most stable will be 
describing 3.4.x versions.  So maybe not using that phrase would be better for 
marketing.

Any advice could be helpful.

[libreoffice-users] impress panes behaviour

2011-10-07 Thread e-letter
Readers,

Similarly to the annoyance of no control of toolbars, how to configure
LO to prevent/allow task panes to appear? For example, in impress,
documents always open with the task pane visible. How to disable this
function please?

Thanks.

Hi :)
Not where the program/application is but where the last document was/is.  The 
~lock. filename file is probably a hidden file so you need to configure the 
file-browser to Show hidden filesfolders

[libreoffice-users] Re: MinGW master build

2011-10-07 Thread Pedro
Managed to get the MinGW binaries to work under Windows XP.

In case anybody is interested (apparently not) you just need to delete the
folders contained in share\extensions
The extensions can't be loaded.

Obviously any of the devs could have explained this but they are in another
mailing list...

Hello John

Well, there was / is DVD images planned.
- to make a long story short;
Tim (who has put in a lot of work on that site) was supposed to be
getting some help on the DVD image build side from a partner, the
partner keeps letting him, and the plan down by not finishing his
piece but that is the plan :(

As to just having that site as a repository of sorts for older binary
releases, even sans DVD images for each, seems like a good thing to have
come out of his efforts (not trying to dodge that whole 'not getting the
dvd image built step' here...) and really if you think about it the
older builds might make less sense for a full DVD sized download...

...as for the DVD image, the weekends here, maybe the latest release
version can find a way into existence during it.

 I have had the idea for a few months now, so I figured it was time to start 
 working on it.
 
 The original NA-DVD site has a set of archive pages for the installs that 
 went into the NA-DVD[s].  There are all of the OSs and the language and help 
 packs that were linked within the default install page[s].
 
 This version of the site pages will have the contents of the DVDs, but will 
 have installs for:
 3.3.2, 3.3.3, 3.3.4
 3.4.1, 3.4.2, 3.4.3
 plus the new ones when they come out.
 
 See what you think.  I need to work on the wording to describe the 
 differences between the 3.3.x line and the 3.4.x line.  I could use some 
 words to describe what line is best to use where.  I know that soon the 
 3.4.x line will be enterprise ready and the most stable and cutting 
 edge words soon will not be the best.  Also, when 3.5.x line comes out, 
 most stable will be describing 3.4.x versions.  So maybe not using that 
 phrase would be better for marketing.

Can anyone try high-contrast in Mac OS X or GnuLinux to confirm (or show the

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41440
it's an issue for accessibility issues.  Don't worry if you don't have time.

Thanks. The bug was quickly confirmed in LibreOffice 3.4 and on Windows 7.
So I'm looking for input about Mac OS X and Linux.

 Hi,
 
 Does anybody use LibreOffice in high-contrast mode? Today I opened 
 LibreOffice 3.3.1 on Windows XP SP3 with High Contrast #1 (see Display 
 Properties  Appearance  Windows and Buttons set to Windows Classic 
 Style, and Color Scheme set to High Contrast #1). I found that the start 
 screen was unreadable, i.e. white text on a white background, while I should 
 be able to read Text document, Spreadsheet, etcetera. These text strings 
 became visible as white on black text on hover, but not on receiving keyboard 
 focus. OpenOffice.org's start screen does not have this issue; everything is 
 readable is white text on a black background.
 
 Is this something that has been solved in more recent versions of 
 LibreOffice? Is this also an issue on Mac OS or on Linux distributions? (I 
 would expect so.)
 If you find the same issue with more recent versions of LibO, more recent 
 versions of Windows and/or other operating systems, please add them to the 
 bug at
 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41440.
 
 Best regards,
 
 Christophe

Re: [libreoffice-users] Working on an archive site/pages for LO and the DVD[s] I have been working with

2011-10-07 Thread Tom Davies
Hi :)
I really think Tim should be charging a reasonable set fee for the dvds and an 
additional amount for postage.

Beyond the obvious expenses there is time, weartear on equipment (accountants 
prefer the term depreciation) and other hidden costs.  Inevitably there are 
going to be a small percentage of people that would be good to charge a reduced 
rate or even for free so the normal charge should be enough to absorb those 
costs.  Reasonable profit to allow the project to expand a bit seems like a 
good plan

Even Richard Stallman and the GPL, LGPL and MPL agreements agree with people 
earning  a reasonable amount as long as it's not just the software that is 
being sold.  In this case it's the Dvd and packaging that would be sold.

In the dim  distant future it might be possible to run it as a proper business 
but at the moment it's just a hobby.  Still, that;s not a good reason to run at 
a loss is it?
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi

I think that usually some people refers that 3.3.x is more stable than
3.4.x and say too which is better for workstation and wich for
experimental. But usually forget to explain in simples and few words the
features differences between both that are very necesary to decide what
version we would use.

I suggest to make a list features that 3.4.x has and hasn't has 3.3.x.
I suggest include a general descripcion about code changes that not take
change in features but yes in efficient.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Working on an archive site/pages for LO and the DVD[s] I have been working with

 I have had the idea for a few months now, so I figured it was time to 
 start working on it.
 
 The original NA-DVD site has a set of archive pages for the installs 
 that went into the NA-DVD[s].  There are all of the OSs and the language 
 and help packs that were linked within the default install page[s].
 
 This version of the site pages will have the contents of the DVDs, but 
 will have installs for:
 3.3.2, 3.3.3, 3.3.4
 3.4.1, 3.4.2, 3.4.3
 plus the new ones when they come out.
 
 See what you think.  I need to work on the wording to describe the 
 differences between the 3.3.x line and the 3.4.x line.  I could use some 
 words to describe what line is best to use where.  I know that soon the 
 3.4.x line will be enterprise ready and the most stable and cutting 
 edge words soon will not be the best.  Also, when 3.5.x line comes out, 
 most stable will be describing 3.4.x versions.  So maybe not using 
 that phrase would be better for marketing.

 Any advice could be helpful.

Could describing the difference as the newer release has more features
and is undergoing major development while the earlier release is being
concurrently supported and updated for 1 year (whatever the long term
support period is). Allowing users the choice of using the current
release series or beng able to use the older series allowing them to
upgrade at their convenience. This similar to Ubuntu's LTS release, the
LTS is support for 3 years for Ubuntu while the other releases are
supported for 18 months.

Note Ubuntu is currently using 3.4.3 as yesterday/today, 3.3.4 was
upgraded to 3.4.3 on my box today.

If you open the ppt file in Impress you can use SAVE AS and save as
pptx. I would also save in the ODF format.
