Re: Date Format error in Spreadsheet

[dkoch]

It sees 1/2 as one-half. Type 01/2 and it should work OK.

Re: 32 bit requirement for Windows Java

[dkoch]

In the first line of the first table on this page: 
 you will find the 32-bit Java 
version, though its size is not labeled.

Re: PDF to odt problem

[dkoch]

There is a means to convert PDF files to Word files. You can then save them as 
ODT, though if there is special formatting in Word, the conversion may not be 
exact.

Foxit has a PDF Editor, as well as a free Reader version. The Editor is often 
available for a free trial period after you download the free Reader. A line 
from their web page describes the process of PDF to Word conversion:

      1.  Open the pdf file with Foxit PDF Editor, go to Convert tab>To MS 
office> Word or File tab>Export>To MS Office>Word>Save As, Save As window will 
pop up.
I do not have the Editor version, so don't know if it will also convert 
directly to ODT.
