 If your father has been using OpenOffice only, can he pinpoint a version
 where it worked/works correctly? Does he have older copies of the document
 (it might have become corrupted at same point in the past...)

Thanks for the info.  Before I got involved, my dad used OpenOffice
exclusively.I had him install version 4.0.1 because that was the
version he had been previously running, before I upgraded to 4.1.0.   :)

Thanks!

Tom

Hi :)
We all get all the mails sent to the mailing list.  So we all got all 3
replies.  There is a bit of clumsiness about it but 3 mails to the list is
one of the best ways of handling it.

On some other mailing lists, particularly the weekly DW Readers Comments
one, i have seen people send a single response and then have different
parts such as

@ Pedro,
Thanks for the info

@ Tom,
my dad did the right thing rather than being too inventive

@ Brian, thanks, will try that.  Sorry for the delay


@ all
he was on AOO 4.0.1 until i upgraded him to LO 4.1.0


It kinda works quite well too but many on this mailing list are likely to
be new or else have even more sophisticated methods.  I quite like the
simplicity of the above method.
Regards from
Tom :)

If the document has been going back and forth between LibreOffice and Apache
OpenOffice  (or old OpenOffice.org) it is quite possible that it was
corrupted at some stage (I have a document where this happened...)

If your father has been using OpenOffice only, can he pinpoint a version
where it worked/works correctly? Does he have older copies of the document
(it might have become corrupted at same point in the past...)

In any case, the easiest way to try earlier versions of LibreOffice and
OpenOffice (assuming he is using Windows) is to get Portable versions
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winpenpack/files/X-LibreOffice/releases/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winpenpack/files/X-ApacheOpenOffice/releases/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winpenpack/files/X-OpenOffice.org/releases/

Hope this helps...

Hi :)
Ahhh, so the hidden columns/rows might well be the only ones corrupted?
That would make it less annoying!
Regards from
Tom :)
