  Doug,
  I just had a similar thing happen to my HP Laserjet 4050tn.  It was very
  slow getting the pages out.  I was using the CUPS Postscript driver and
  isolated the problem to the printer.  Cups showed the document sent and
  completed as far as it was concerned, but the printer LED was still
  flashing and after 30 minutes, still had not printed even the first
  page.  I discovered changing the CUPS driver from Postscript to the HP
  PCL3 driver made it work fine.  Now pages print within seconds of
  clicking on Print.
  All of my computers are Slackware 14.0 Linux and all of my HP printers
  are networked.
 
  I may note that this problem started when I upgraded to Slack 14.0 with
  the new 3.x kernel.  It may be that the newer Postscript causes the
  older Postscript engines in the relatively old HP printers to hang up.
 
  Hope this helps.

have you considered to contact the ProjectLibre group also?

 Here's an article you can show to others.   While it's about
 LibreOffice, it also mentions OpenOffice as a suitable alternative to
 Microsoft Office.

Re: Open Office 3.4.1

If you save as tab-separated CSV file, it should do the trick since Excel
expects CSV to be separated by tab by default.
Alternatively you can save the comma separated values file with extention
.txt and then ask excel to open the *.txt files. This will bring up a
wizard where you can modify all the import settings.

 We need to be able to move data from spreadsheet to an existing Excel

 Is there a mechanism I am overlooking?  Please advise
