Re: Text import box

Hello, did you try right clicking the icon of the file and open with OO Calc? 
It might help about your problem. Similarly, review the options of text 
importing to see if a better result exists. And most importantly, save the file 
in the native .ods format if you are saved.

I had a spreadsheet with my hockey stats that I update fairly often (I last 
updated it about a week ago), but when I tried to open it today a Text Import 
box came up which I've never seen before. I pressed OK and it opened the 
spreadsheet but all the data was gone, it was just a blank spreadsheet. I tried 
opening it on a different computer and got my friend to try opening it as well, 
and it said that the extension doesn't exist (the extension is .xls which is 
how I always used to open it). I really need this recovered somehow, is there 
anything I can do?

Never will openoffice ask you a fee. Immediately, uninstall the software, 
browse to http://openoffice.org and download the real package.

Subject: Activation codes 

Hello, 

 

As a great user in France of all the Open Office products, I am experiencing 
problems with the update, and am currently using the 4.1.0 edition. Every time 
I click to open or create a document, I'm invited to update to 4.1.1.

 

When I try to do so and am connected to an official page, I'm invited to spend 
4.5 euros for a first activiation code, then another 4.5 euros for a second 
one.  The numbers to which I had to send a texto and the codes received were 1) 
83020 for code MQYQYJ and 2) 81221 for code MUARQJ. Both of these numbers also 
invited me to pay for a game (I did not). The telephone number provided for 
assistance on the first code is 0821610753 (France). The email provided for 
assistance with the second code was c...@smsinf.net.


 

If this is open source and free, why does the Open Office icon connect me to 
Source Forge which appears to be an official OPen Office page, requiring 
payment of a total of 9 euros ?

 

Is Apache aware of the problem? I should be automatically connected to an 
official page, not to Source Forge, unless it's also an official Apache site.

 

I will add that after all these manipulations - and COSTS-, I still am at the 
4.1.0 edition whereas I followed the procedure a third time and was told that 
the update had been downloaded successfully.

 

What is happening with Open Office and why did I have to spend money for 2 
useless activation codes ? 

 

Thanks for a quick answer. In addition, I'm willing to help improve Open Office 
products - but at no cost !
