Re: [users] Alphabetical Index not in Table of Contents
Thank you Naomi Works like a charm. Since my original posting, I sent this in as an issue. I hope you don't mind if I forward you e-mail to assist. Thank you Paul Naomi Kramer wrote: Hi Paul, The Alphabetical Index uses a non-standard-heading paragraph style for its heading... like the TOC does. The way to get it in the TOC is: 1. Right-click on the TOC and select Edit Index/Table 2. Click on the Index/Table tab 3. In the Create From area, tick the Additional Styles checkbox 4. Click on the ... button 5. Select Index Heading 6. Click on the >> button till you get it at the heading level you want (eg if you want it looking the same as Heading 1 entries in the TOC, click the >> button once) 7.

As you create the table, set your numerical counter field as the Primary key. Its Field Type must be Integer[INTEGER]. Set AutoValue to Yes.

Yes, there is a solution to your problem. Return the software to Cosmi, and ask for your money back. Then download OpenOffice.org (OOo) from www.openoffice.org. OOo is a free download, and it is the full version. It is also most likely a newer version of OOo than what Cosmi offers. (Cosmi Perfect Pro Office is OOo with at most a few minor changes if any changes were made other than the name.) Either Cosmi has made some changes to OOo, or you are not correctly using it.

It is possible that your antivirus product changes some of the data being
downloaded. To check to see if this is happening you can use the MD5SUM

[users] How to character format SS and forms captions in row headings?
Hi, I have tried everything I know 2 days, to solve this without success... WinXP home/SP3 - 1.1.nn and 2.0.nn I'm a US Windows/Latin_1 user and have a MySql database formatted in Danish as Latin1/Latin1_Danish coming into SS or forms. As I pull the data into a spreadsheet by way of the MySql connector, the headings are being formatted in what appears to be German. I have tried all the options I could find in Tools>Options and tried to re-write the Writer template language option for captions as well. I looked at the formatting for default>text>captions and for Language Assist and seem unable to solve this issue. I have also tried pulling the data in through a different ODBC connector for .MDB with same results so I do not think this is the MySql/Java connector causing it, but rather I believe the templates for new documents may be translating it as the new document opens. Suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Regards, Mike ___ http://www.invisibleimage.org/DrChristians/ --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.

Hm, can you please tell us, which operating system and which version of OpenOffice.org you're using? For my point of view, I guess, that you're trying to open documents, saved in the new default format, with an old version of OOo. Please go to Help > About and tell us, which version OOo gives you there. Regards Sigrid - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I believe yo have to have Java (JRE) installed for this to work, and an Internet connection running. After choosing a dictionary you can then set up the thesaurus. Then you need to set the default language from Tools - Options -Language Settings - Languages. If the dictionary is installed you will see a little ABC with a check mark (tick). Make sure that your language is set by right clicking on the page and choosing Character in the menu. There should be a box on the Font tab showing your language. *Then* save that document as a template File - Templates- Save (call it "default" or something like that. Then File-Templates-Organize -- Select the template you have just saved and click "Commands" where there is an option to set that as your default template. That way all your language settings will be preserved for next time.

OOo lists all the dictionaries that are installed so seeing Czech probably means you are using one of Pavel Janik's releases. In any case, OOo uses the language defined in the styles you use unless you have enabled "Check all languages" Thesauruses need to be installed.

When I test the connection in OpenOffice, it tells me the connection was successful, however, it will not show me any of the tables in the database. Does anyone have any experience with this problem?

Re: [users] Can I use Open Office on a Tablet PC running Windows XP?
Hi Susan, Susan Termini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb: > The tablet is an HP/Compaqtc4200. Thanks Yes, you can use OpenOffice.org on a tablet PC, that runs under Windows XP. OOo can be used with a various number of operating systems. The only thing, that might be missing are some "extra features" like inserting data by writing the text manually (with your handwriting, not via keyboard). But this is only my guess, I don't know, if this is true or not. Sigrid - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Assigning a macro to a key work works fine in Excel but it does not seem to be possible in StarOffice. I think it would be a valuable addition. Hi Rory, I don't see the text of your macro. To assign a keyboard shortcut to a macro use: Tools/Customize, Keyboard. The interface is a bit odd, but it works fine. You can assign the shortcut for only Calc or for the entire group of OOo applications. You have to go to the bottom of the lower left pane and find OpenOffice.org Macros, press on the plus sign in front of it to select your macro.

Macros written in visual basic don't work straight out of the box in OpenOffice, however, the simple ones can be very, very easily re-created using StarBasic. Cheers, Michele
