Unable to edit document - under Windows, if you have the original document open and try to open another copy, the second copy will be a read only. To change from read only to active document, save it under a new name. Less complicated that using windows to change the attribute as suggested below.

Right-click on the document. If an Edit option is displayed on the pop-up menu that appears, click Edit. The document will then be ready to edit. If the operating system (perhaps you're using Windows?) sees the file as read-only then clicking Edit on the pop-up menu will display a message asking if you'd like to edit a copy of the document. Click Yes to edit a copy. If the original file must be edited then need to use Windows to change the file from read-only to read/write. This may seem like double-speak, sorry. The file can be read-only from AOOs point of view or from Windows point of view. If clicking Edit as described above causes the question do you want to edit a copy of the document to appear then Windows (if that's what you're using) sees the file as read-only. AOO will not over ride that and so asks you if you'd like to edit a copy. If Windows sees the file as read/write then AOO will make the document editable immediately after clicking edit on the pop-up menu and won't ask if you'd like to edit a copy.

Re: Warning: [Was Re: How Do I Get Rid of Searchconduit?
Suggestion for getting a download without the so-called installers - if you find the program, read the information on the site (such as CNET) to find the domain originating the program. For instance, Open Office information on CNET mentions the OO web site (openoffice.org) several times. Another suggestion - use search engine such as Google (usually is selective on results returned) / Dogpile (shows results from several search engines thus greater chance of finding what you are searching). Be sure to check the suggested domain name to ensure you find the home site for the program being searched. Once you find the home site. Per comment before, I have used CNET for about 15 years and did not have to download one of the so-called installers . . .

Thanks. You must be running Windows. Altho Conduit says it's not a virus, it really is, and it's a bitch to get rid of. Your best bet is to Google it. In your browser, if it's Firefox, *after* you delete it from every other place you can find, then reset Firefox. (You will lose any special setting you have.) Don't forget to follow the removal instructions about the registry--you have to get it off there too. The instructions I found did *not* clean the Microsoft Browser (the e browser). Since I never use that, i didn't care. I also do not use Windows very often, for those reasons and others. You might consider installing a Linux distro on a partition on your machine. Then you won't see things like Conduit and other crap like it (and worse)! OpenOffice and LibreOffice are both available on a Linux system. You may find you want to use the kde desktop, since it works and looks a lot like Windows. PCLinuxOS uses KDE normally, as does Kubuntu-- note the K--and Fedora, and a few others. I like PCLinuxOS (PCLOS) myself. All of these are available in 32- or 64-bit versions. A great many programs you use in Windows have counterparts in Linux, and they're almost all completely free! Only two programs that i use--AutoCAD and WordPerfect --are not available, and if you are comfortable with OO you probably won't be using WordPerfect. (There are also cad programs, but they are not AutoCAD clones.) If you are into games, a great many of them will run under an emulator called WINE. All Linux distros that I know of have a forum or a mailing list, or both, so if you need help, it's available. The folks on the PCLOS forum are very helpful, and the turnaround is quite fast--from a couple of hours to maybe a day. --doug --- List Conduct Guidelines: http://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org - No virus found in this message.

Re: AMAZING -- Case of Subscription via a Remailer Address [was: Re: Removing yourself from the list :)]
Thank you, Tom for the insight; however, if these people cannot send email from these type of email addresses, how did they get on the list to start with? Tom Panfil wrote: Hello OpenOffice Apache Moderators, I don't want to unsubscribe from any of the three project lists to which I subscribe (users, dev, api) but like you, I've seen too many requests sent to the lists from people who want to unsubscribe. I assume that something is finally done administratively to unsubscribe their addresses since they eventually stop pestering. Many people who are members of ACM or IEEE or other professional associations register using a Remailer Address serviced by the organization. The use of a Remailer Address enables provision of at least the following services by the organization: * Virus scanning of mail sent to the member's Remailer Address * Quarantining of S--- sent to the member's Remailer Address -- Note that I did not use the S-Word since using it might cause Verizon refuse to send the message considering it to be S. * Forwarding of non-infected non-S--- messages to the member's ISP provided addresses. * Ease of changing of ISPs by simply registering a new ISP supplied e-mail address with the Remailer Service so that mail sent to the Remailer address is forwarded to the member's new current ISP provided address. Correspondents need not be informed of the change of ISP. These people *cannot* send from their Remailer Addresses. They can and usually do include their preferred Remailer Address in the Reply-To field of their message headers. Their e-mail messages are sent from their ISP provided addresses. So, I think that a significant proportion of those who send to the list asking to be removed have tried sending to the address in the footer of the messages and were not removed from the list since they are subscribed with a Remailer Address. That address from which they are send is different from the address which is subscribed I recommend that some mechanism be established for such subscribers to take action to be removed from OpenOffice Apache lists. The instructions they need should be provided in the footer with the other three instructions. I can't imagine that *no* developers and maintainers of OpenOffice know of Remailer Addresses. How could this problem have festered so long? Does the project cadre really not know about Remailer Addresses? If you can maintain Apache projects you must be able to understand this dilemma now that I have explained it somewhat clearly, I think. Note that I am subscribed via an IEEE Remailer address. I'd no doubt have the same problem which these other poor souls have if I'd try to unsubscribe. - No virus found in this message.
