Saving Documents?

2017-11-23 Thread John Glassburner

Friends,

I usually have a number of documents I'm working on and I like to keep 
them open and available. If my computer is turned off abruptly, as when 
we have a power outage, Open Office has an automatic rescue tool that I 
appreciate. But when I shut down my computer those documents are no 
longer "up" when I turn it back on again. Is there a way I can keep 
these documents up and open when I turn my computer off?

This is really a matter not for OpenOffice but for your operating 
system - which you have kept a secret. But you appear to be using Windows 7.


You can put links to specific document files in the Startup settings 
of Windows, but you'd have to change these as the range of documents 
in use changed.


An easier technique is to hibernate your system instead of shutting 
it down. This powers off your computer gracefully, but instead of 
closing applications it copies their current state to disk, so that 
they are reopened in the same state when you power up your system 
again. But note that there are some drawbacks. If you shut down 
normally, you will be prompted to save unsaved but modified 
documents. Hibernating doesn't do this, so the copy of anything in 
the cloud, for example, may not be completely up to date if later 
accessed from elsewhere if you have not saved explicitly before 
hibernating. If you have prepared an e-mail message but not sent it, 
you may not be reminded to do so before your system powers off, and 
you may forget to do so. But with a bit of care, hibernation can be 
the trick you need. In any case, it may be wise to restart your 
system normally every so often.


See

I trust this helps.

problem with saving documents

On mt ASUS laptop spreadsheets are saved with the correct extension

this is a setting problem with your product or do I need to check with
ASUS as to what the cause of the problem may be. I do not have Microsoft

Can you access such folders and save files there from other applications, 
outside of OpenOffice?

Are you familiar with the command line?

I haven't used OSX for many months but the basics are similar to linux, so 
will do my best.  It's time I got that OSX virtual machine running anyway.

When you try do save do you see a hierarchy of folders beneath Documents. If not, click on the 
triangle to the right of the document name.

Useful though this facility is, it is important that readers are not 
misled by this suggestion. Like all sensible applications, OpenOffice 
saves document files only when the user asks for this to happen - 
using Save or Save As or by selecting Save from the options provided 
when a modified document is closed without having been saved. This is 
important, so that a user may choose, after a period of editing, to 
abandon all changes and close the document or session without 
modifying the original document.


The option at Tools | Options... | Load/Save | General | Save | Save 
AutoRecovery information every ... Minutes has another purpose. If it 
is ticked, information about the current editing session is salted 
away regularly - but separately from the actual document file. This 
information is deleted automatically if a session is terminated 
normally. Its purpose is instead to deal with program or system 
crashes or power outages. In these circumstances an offer is made, 
when OpenOffice is next started, to recover editing changes made in 
the aborted session as far as possible.
