Import those fonts into your operating system. Then they will be available to OpenOffice.

Re: importing
The only way that I know of is to open the Access Query for editing and switch to the SQL view. Then copy the text of the SQL statement and paste into a new Query created in Base also open in SQL view mode. Rinse and repeat for each of the queries in the Access file. The help system in Access covers how to switch into SQL view there. Same holds for the Base application, the help shows you how to switch the Query designer into SQL view. The actual select statement may need some translation from the dialect used in Access and the dialect used by whichever of the database engines Base is working with at the moment.

importing
To whom it may concern; Presently, I am using Microsoft Access as my database for my men's club roster. I have approximately 300 records. I would like to use Apple Open Office Base in lieu of Access. I have two tables (one for active members and one for dropped members). I have several (at least twenty-five) queries in that Access database. I tried the online suggestion to bring over to Open Office all my tables and queries. However, every one of the queries came over as a table. Not one query. All tables. My basic question is: Is there a way to import an Access query into Apple Open Office? C L Rockwell clrockwel...@gmail.com
importing addresses from Appleworks
Will openoffice import a database with street addresses from an old Appleworks program? And how? Also, I have been able to print addresses directly onto postcards in Appleworks. Can I do this with openoffice? Lisa and Cecil McKenzie McKenzie Glass 958 Road 215 Emporia, KS 66801 Lisa620-481-6868 www.mckenzieglass.com www.facebook.com/McKenzie.Glass

I want to import this CSV file. And when I import it using those settings. I tried to change the import columns to Number but I could not. You shouldn't need to: Standard should do all you need. Than every number has that single mark there with three spaces and the only way to get rid of it is manually delete it! It's best not to imagine that the leading apostrophe is actually in the cell but rather that it is just a marker. If you declare Comma as your separator, your columns of numbers are not just numbers but are preceded by a number of explicit spaces. These strings are imported as text, and the apostrophe is an indicator that what is there is text, not the number which it looks like and that you presumably want. You can sort the problem after you have imported the text. Here's what to do: o Select all the data cells - in other words. rows 4 onwards. o Go to Edit | Find & Replace... (or Ctrl+F). o For "Search for", enter " +" (that's space-plus, no quotes). That regular expression matches any number of consecutive spaces. o Leave "Replace with" empty. o Click More Options and tick "Current selection only" and "Regular expressions". o Click Replace All. The trick here is that after you have removed the spaces, Calc reinterprets the values as it would do if you typed them initially. It recognises the text without its leading spaces as numbers and converts them and stores them as numbers. The apostrophes have disappeared! But there is an easier way: o In the Text Import dialogue, at "Separated by", tick Comma, Space, and "Merge delimiters". Now you just have a little tidying up to do. o Select A4 to G4 - all the parts of your now disconnected first line. o Go to Format | Merge Cells (or click the Merge Cells button in the Formatting toolbar). o Reply Yes to moving the contents of the cells. o Now use Merge Cells again to separate the merged cells. Your text in now in A1. o Repeat with A2 to B2. o Repeat with C3 to D3 to reassemble "Dsn Height" o Select A1 to C3. o Cut and paste into B1. o Delete column A. Here's probably an even easier way: o In the Text Import dialogue, at "Separated by", tick Comma, Space, and "Merge delimiters", but also change "From row" to 4. o Delete column A. o If required, insert three new rows at the top and paste in or retype the first three lines manually. Another idea is to create a new spreadsheet and to use Insert | Sheet From File... and to open the CSV file that way. Then you can import the data twice with different Text Import settings and reassemble different parts together on your real sheet. I trust this helps.

If you remove all the spaces it will load correctly as numbers. To save you a lot of time there is an option with importing CSV files tick the Detect special numbers and it will handle the values as numbers instead of text. 2) Posting questions on forum Sorry I want to ask the forum a question!

importing xml file into calc

The particular questions are: -what do I have to do to begin with -what editor I have to use to write my filter -how can I test it -could you provide some examples of filters and so on. Could you please provide me a precise documentation for open office 4.1.1. calc or assist me on this issue? Thank you in advance. Cheers Mariya
Re: importing xml file into calc
Hi Mariya, what kind of xml is it? There exists already some filters and perhaps one of them will open your file. Or you will find an existing filter in an extension. Are you forced to use xml or do you can get another format, e.g. csv, as well?

Which one is suitable, depends on your operating system. -how can I test it Tools XML Filter Settings has a Test button, but I have never used it, because I do not write my own filters. -could you provide some examples of filters and so on.
