unsubscribe with an other email address you're in trouble.



Not when the link you click to unsubscribe, transfers the TO address

In order for an unsubscribe web page to work it would have to recognize 
the user who's wanting to unsubscribe, otherwise anyone could 
unsubscribe anyone else. To get around that a paasword system would have 
to be established and the web page hosted and maintained. I fail to see 
how that simplifies things.
Clicking on the appropriate link at the bottom of any message from any

confirmation request to arrive then returning that as requested seems to 
me to be much easier.

I got nothing from your file.  I fear it is damaged beyond repair.  

The size usually indicates that space was allocated for it, but the computer 
crashed before the data could be written there.

It is possible (but unlikely) that you may recover a deleted temporary file by 
running Recuva or PhotoRec.  There may also be a temporary or a backup file in 
the directories pointed to by OpenOffice /Tools /Options /OpenOffice /Paths for 
Temporary and Backup files. {Options etc is under Preferences on a Mac]

Re: Shut down

[James Plante]

It would help us to analyze your problem if you would provide the version 
number of your operating system; the version of OpenOffice that you are 
running; and the type of computer (laptop? desktop?).

A couple of suggestions that might work: Click on the Apple menu at the top of 
the screen; select “Force Quit…” from the menu. Then find OpenOffice in the 
Force Quit menu and select it. Click the button at the bottom, and it should be 
gone. 

If nothing else works, reboot the Mac and hold down the shift key while it 
reboots. It should restart with no applications running. 

If neither of those works, write back with as much information as you can 
provide. Somebody here is likely to know a way to fix this.

OpenOffice Rechtschreibung

[Erich Peters]

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
seit Langem benutze ich OpenOffice zu meiner vollsten Zufriedenheit. 
Seit einiger Zeit habe ich Window 10 auf meinem Rechner. Jetzt 
funktioniert die Rechtschreibprüfung nicht mehr richtig. Wenn ich 
Extras--> Rechtschtreibung und Gramatik---> Optionen aufrufe und ein 
Häckchen bei Rechtschreibung während der Eingabe überprüfen mache, dann 
wird der ganze Text rot unterkringel auch die richt geschriebenen 
Wörter. Nach meiner Auffassung müsste das Programm nur die falsch 
geschriebenen Wörter unterkringeln. Man kann doch nicht alle Wörter 
eines Textes überprüfen. Können Sie mir raten oder helfen? Für Ihre 
Hilfe möchte ich mich im voraus bedanken.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Erich Peters

The formula =$'2016 Scores'.M342 should be the formula you need. The 508
error comes from the use of the parents, and the separator in Calc is a
. rather than the , used in Excel.

Hope this helps

Another way of creating the formula is to type the = then click on the source 
cell and hit return.

Err: 508 When trying to Auto Replicate/Transfer data between two sheets.

[Vince]

I am using AOO Calc vers 4.1.2 and Win 8.1x64 (file name is 2016 My 
Bowling Score Data.ods).


I want to "automatically transfer" the data that is typed/entered into 
Cell M342 of the Sheet named: 2016 Scores into Cell D6 of the Sheet 
named: 2016 Match Play.


The Cell M342 data is calculated by the formula:
 =SUM(C342:K342),
which yields a result of 386.

I have entered:
=($'2016 Scores',M342)
into Cell D6 of the Sheet named: 2016 Match Play.

Cell D6 results in Err: 508.

Is this error due to an improper typography?  Any suggestions are welcomed.

VinceB.

Re: Err: 508 When trying to Auto Replicate/Transfer data between two sheets.

[Vince B.]

That is a very good hint/reminder,  Steve.  I knew about this when staying 
within the same sheet; I hope it works for me.  

TNX.

If a site subscribes someone to the list, is this automatic, or is it like most 
other lists where a confirmation is required?

The confirmation required message could include in flashing neon lights the 
unsubscribe procedure.

I haven't been following this thread--I don't even know what you folks 
are writing about--but I accidentally saw this first line. I have had 
two cataracts _replaced_.
When the cataract was removed, it was replaced with a plastic lens 
whose characteristics were designed by my ophthalmologist. I still 
need glasses for close work, reading, etc, but I
can actually see better than I could see before I got the cataracts. 
So if Vince B. can't do that, maybe he should see another 
ophthalmologist! Something doesn't sound right, there.


Good luck, Vince!

Hi Doug:

My 71 yr old, densecataract internal ocular lens were _replaced_ on DEC 
15th and JAN 5th. I've yet to get to my optometrist (who is also my 
daughter); she will examine me on FEB 6th, and write a script for new 
reading glasses.  Using my old reading glasses for now; but they are not 
up-to-par, now that the new IOLs are in place.


For me, it was amazing to see a blue sky at sunrise with my left 
(corrected) eye, while waiting to have the right eye's cataract 
replaced; the same sky appeared gray/overcast (with the uncorrected 
right eye), but it wasn't!


My long distance vision is _clearly_ better than before the surgeries; I 
no longer need to wear glasses while driving. Colored objects, 
especially those that are blue, green, yellow and white, appear truer to 
me.


Regards,
VinceB.

Ive subscribed to hundreds of lists. Recently I found I was getting too 
much email,
and I clicked on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of about twenty of 
them. None of the pages
asked for a password, and every one unsubscribed the address passed to 
it  without a problem.


The reason for the suggestions was to improve the list, not to add to 
the clutter. By the quality of the product,
it's obvious a lot of smart people donated time on the OO project. Why 
something as simple as fixing a minor
unsubscribe problem, generates so much opposition is beyond 
understanding, and besides that, I don't think

making excuses does anyone any good.

Not true. The person maliciously unsubscribing someone, would have to 
have a copy of their email,
and if that was the case, I think getting wrongly unsubscribed from this 
list would be the least of their
problems. I get hundreds of  mails a day and I know how to deal with 
them, but many people don't,
and there is no way to unsubscribe to people complaining they can 
unsubscribe, without making a

complex filter for this group.

I think some sites distributing copies of OO, subscribe people to the 
list, and call it support. Making
it easier for those who don't want to receive it to stop it, would take 
a little work, but I'm sure people
having trouble unsubscribing, and monitors that have to deal with them 
would appreciate it.
