 How do you know the OP is not subscribed?

 You need to look at the message's *headers*. If and only if there is one
that says Delivered To: moderator for users@openoffice.org then the sender
is *un*subscribed. If that header is absent then the sender is subscribed.

In Outlook Express, once a message is open, go to
FilePropertiesDetailsMessage Source and then scroll down to see either
one or two Delivered To: headers.

In Thunderbird I think it's ViewHeadersAll.

In Gmail/Google Mail in a web browser it's More ActionsView Original.

Don't know about other mail programs.

In Thunderbird you can set up a filter to, for example, highlight in red in
your inbox messages from unsubscribed posters. Note that this statement is
only true for Thunderbird's *e-mail* module. You cannot set up a similar
filter if you use Thunderbird's *news* component to read this list via e.g
Gmane.

In cell O13 enter the formula =IF(K13*M13; K13*M13; ), without the 
outside quotes.  It says basically IF cell K13 times cell M13 produces 
a value, place that value here, or else if no value, put nothing

[users] Re: [opensuse] Resurrecting VMware (6.5) After Kernel Update?

2009-03-23 Thread Hylton Conacher (ZR1HPC)
Hi Randall,

Although for n earlier version, I think as well as VMWare server, the
VMWare needs to be recompiled to know where the new kernel bits are.

Hence after a kernel update all I did was run, as root user, the
following command:

# vmware-config.pl

Most of the defaults are fine or keep the old settings, at least
according to my notes.

ymmv but HIH

 Hi,

 I'm sure I should know this, but I can't recall or find the answer...

 After updating a kernel, what must be done to restore VMware
 functionality?

 Randall,

 In a perfect world: nothing.
 In a VMware world: the kernel modules need to be recompiled.

 now the trick:
 - VMware actually should detect if the modules are there, and if not ask for 
 the root password and compile them.
 most likely though, when you start VMware, it just tells you which modules 
 are not loaded and at segfaults.

 In this case, you will need this script:

 --- START SCRIPT ---
 #/bin/sh
 cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
 for a in *.tar ; do tar xf $a; done
 pushd vmblock-only; make; popd
 pushd vmci-only; make; popd
 pushd vmmon-only; make; popd
 pushd vmnet-only; make; popd
 cp vmci-only/Module.symvers vsock-only/
 pushd vsock-only; make; popd
 find -name *.ko -exec cp \
  {} /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/misc/ \;
 depmod -aq
 --- END SCRIPT ---

 Sometimes I ended up also with the need to modify /etc/init.d/vmware.
 You would find a function vmwareLoadModule()

 I suggest to change it to:

 vmwareLoadModule() {
   /sbin/modprobe $1 || exit 1
   return 0
 }

 then issue /etc/init.d/vmware start and you should be back in business. 
 (that is, if you're using a kernel  2.6.28! Otherwise it's getting really
 nasty with an additional patch to be applied to the modules.)

[users] Where can I download version 3.0.0 (not 3.0.1) for Mac OS X?...

2009-03-23 Thread Fred Stluka

Where can I download version 3.0.0 (not 3.0.1) for Mac OS X?
I don't see the old versions anywhere at http://openoffice.org.

Other sites recommended in the forums seem to have only Windows
versions.  I've already checked:
   http://filehippo.com/download_openoffice/
   http://www.oldapps.com/openoffice.htm

Reason: 
   I'm running 3.0.0 on Windows due to a new bug in 3.0.1 that

   I have reported and that is due to be fixed in 3.1.  Meanwhile,
   I want to use version 3.0.0 on Max OS X also.

Thanks!

What you have here is a case of vendor lock-in:

The solution (one solution?) is to download the trial version of
Wordperfect Office and use it to export the spreadsheet files in a less
proprietary format. I see Wordperfect Office now supports ODF but i do
not know at what level.

You will have to do this on a Windows machine as they do not support

Re: [users] Where can I download version 3.0.0 (not 3.0.1) for Mac OS X?...

2009-03-23 Thread Fred Stluka

Thanks, Brian!  That's exactly what I was looking for.

I'm posting this to provide more detail to people who search the
forum archives in the future.

That URL takes me to:
   ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/3.0.0rc4/
which has hundreds of versions, all Mac OS X, all 3.0.0rc4, as the
URL indicates.  Includes Intel and PowerPC versions.  The rest of the
file-naming convention seems to specify language (en=English), and
variant of the language (en-GB=English Great Britain).

I chose: 
   Oo_3.0.0rc4_MacOSXIntel_install.dmg

which has no language designation but is the US English version.
Installed it, ans it looks great!  It is exactly the same build
number as the version I'm currently using on Windows.

Thanks!

Try http://tinyurl.com/8c5yt9 .

These are all versions of 3.0.0 Release Candidate 4, but that 
transpired to be the published version.


I trust this helps.

How right you are!

A relevant header reads: X-Originating-IP: [196.3.183.73].  This 
address appears to be located in Nigeria.  It's blacklisted by 
spamcop.net, abuseat.org, sorbs.net, and spamhaus.org - amongst others.


Previous messages from the spoofed address suggest that its owner is 
one time zone east of GMT (UTC) and that he keeps daylight saving 
time in the northern hemisphere's summer.  Nigeria is one zone east 
of UTC but - being tropical - does not exercise daylight saving.  So 
his domicile is unlikely to be Nigeria (but probably central 
Europe).  Oh, and if (as he once told) he uses the English (UK) 
version of OpenOffice, he would probably use British rather than US 
spelling: thus travelling instead of traveling and possibly even 
programme instead of program.


As you suggest, it's not our friend who has sent this message. but

[users] How to override format defaults(?) in Calc

2009-03-23 Thread Dick Hoffman
This looks so simple I'm obviously overlooking something but I can't 
figure out what's happening. In OO-Calc V 3.0.0, I'm trying to type the 
string DMoines (without the enclosing quotes)into a cell but it keeps 
getting changed into Dmoines, i.e. I can't capitalize the 'M'. I tried 
some other things and find that if I type aBCd into a cell and then 
try to type ABCd into the cell below it, it keeps getting changed to 
aBCd and if I type EFGh into a cell and then try to type EFGH into 
the cell below it gets changed to EFGh. What is causing all this, 
what's the rationale behind it and how do I get around it?

You have two related but somewhat separate issues here.

1. To avoid DMoines being changed into Dmoines:  Go to Tools  
Autocorrect  Options, and uncheck Correct two initial capitals


2. To avoid the second situation (typing ABCd and having it changed to 
aBCd if you had previously entered aBCd in that column): Go to Tools  
Cell Contents, and click on Autoinput to remove the check mark by it.


Hope this helps.

Hi Dick

the solution is in menue - extra - "autocorrect". There are 2 option
for you.
If you have some problems with uppercaseletters in front of a word use
the third tab options


the other is - use the second tab execption in the lower arear you can
enter single words where the rules from tab 3 should not work.



This is similar to wirter in OO
