RE: Open Office and Microsoft Office data input

[Maye, Darryl M.]

In my reply to Brian Barker just a few mintues ago:

Good afternoon,

Had I known that the data would not be accessible from both platforms I would 
not have destroyed the receipts.

Although it shouldn't happen, that data doesn't appear in both platforms, I am 
afraid it appears to happened to me. As I only have ONE file to save to, 
somehow my saving to an incorrect file doesn't happen. Why would I hide data I 
need? Not to mention that I have no idea of HOW to hide data.

I save the data in the open document formant so that it would be compatible 
with both Excel and Open Office.

I use a flash drive to hold the data. I am not using any cloud services to 
store any of my data.

I do find it interesting you make specific note that is something I am doing 
wrong versus perhaps something the program is doing. But be that as it may, I 
guess we are all free to make judgment calls.

Your help will be appreciated.

I than saw that you have also responded to me Julian so I just copied my 
answers for your review. Hope it helps you to help me resolve this issue.

Thank you

How are you sharing the files between the home and office computer?

You shouldn't have this problem if you use a dependable cloud file sharing 
product like DropBox.  Otherwise keep the file on a memory stick and carry it 
back and forth.
