Re: Field delimiter when saving a file as text.csv
The cost to do it manually is the same as the cost to do it automatically.

Re: new version
If you have enough hard disk storage, keeping OpenOffice is easier. You can pay somebody else, if he is responsible. It is possible that you need better antivirus or anti-malware tools. 2014-06-04 1:27 GMT+08:00 James Knott james.kn...@rogers.com: On 06/03/2014 12:51 PM, frank owen wrote: I downloaded the newer version of Open office.

Re: Word pad
Open MS word before you open a word file, maybe everything is fine. 2014-06-03 23:36 GMT+08:00 Johnny Rosenberg gurus.knu...@gmail.com: 2014-06-03 0:59 GMT+02:00 Doug Thomas d...@dougthomas.biz: I downloaded open office. I didn't like the format of the word processer documents, so I removed the program. Just curious, but why didn't you just change the format then? Johnny Rosenberg Now, my hundreds and hundreds of MS Word documents have all been re-formatted to Word Pad, which is totally unacceptable. I can't even save a new Word document - they all turn into Word Pad. How do I get my Word documents back to Word format? I am very upset at this change! Doug Thomas
Re: PDF export defaults background page color
Black background is unusual for a Writer file.

Moving a frame - graphic
Hi, I created a frame with text because when I create a text piece (lines of text) which is to be inserted at end of email - is my company name the spacing because all skewed. So, I inserted the text in a frame (text box) thinking it would lock the format and I could just copy and paste it to the ends of emails as needed. However, when attempting this it did not work. I am attaching the doc with the frame for your guidance with this. Thanks so much.

They will still work fine in Word. With the normal install, OpenOffice becomes the default app for the various file types is handles. The same thing would happen if you had installed Word, after previously using OpenOffice. You can either change the file assignment back to Word or right click on the file and select Word. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
Inconsistent checkbox behavior
Hi! I'm using OpenOffice 4.0.1 under Windows 7 ( Traditional Chinese ). While using form control to create a checkbox, I observe that when checking the control, it shows a tick in the checkbox in print preview, but showing a x in actual printed result. (see the attached files. ) The behavior is the same in OpenOffice 4.1.0 ( tested with Bullzip PDF printer ). Is there anyway to make it consistent or configure whether to use a tick or a 'x'? Thanks. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
