Can't say for sure - I suppose there is but there hasn't been any priority set to it that I've seen. I will need to stick to a version of Windows, Win7 if it is as good as it is advertised, instead of using Vista. We each make decisions - but I wouldn't let it stop me if I wanted that 64bit OS. There are many 64bit windows users, it's only in a few cases (it appears to me) that you even need do anything special and in all those, that I know of, it is just that - just the need to mind a particular setting or load a particular support file. I have an HP AMD64bit desktop, I run Ubuntu 64bit on it and yes I have some issues with sound and video no matter what. Joyce's PC here is a Compaq Intel32bit desktop, runs Ubuntu 32bit and yes I have some issues with her sound and video from time to time - maybe it's the sys admin :( We have an HP 110 Mi (Atom) net-book - this has Linux pre-installed and there is no glitch to be found with video or audio anywhere at this point (~4 months). Finally - I only run 64bit because I want to use virtualization in order to run multiple desktop/os combos for testing purposes, with database server(s) running back on the host. It is hard to see real advantages to going 64bit for Windows or Linux desktops in most cases. Best wishes, Drew Drew, this may be a little off-topic, but I find that many of the sound problems I was having with my HP AMD x86_64 running the notorious Creative X-Fi sound card have been solved by updating to the Karmic beta with the 2.6.31 kernel.

[users] Available language modules grayed out
I had been noticing that the spell checker wasn't working on my Windows XP system (writer), and on investigating I found that when I went to language settings/writing aids the window for available language modules was grayed out.

[users] Word references not picked up properly in OOo
All, I've inherited a document that was created in an earlier version of Word (pre-2007). I'm trying to sort out reference links as they appear when I open the document in OpenOffice 3.1.1 on Windows XP. In several places, the title numbers/prefixes of Chapters and some major headings are captured by reference - for example, there's a document overview before the first chapter that describes/summarizes each chapter and appendix in a brief paragraph. In Word, these appear as: Chapter 1 - the blurb about this chapter. Chapter 2 - the blurb about that chapter. Chapter 3 - the blurb about this other chapter. Appendix A - the blurb about this appendix. Appendix B - the blurb about that appendix. The Chapter 1 or the Appendix A are bolded. In Word, the user/reader can Control-click the Chapter 2 (or whatever) to jump directly to the first page of the target chapter (or appendix). HOWEVER, in OOo 3.1.1 on Windows XP Pro x64, what I get instead is: [] - the blurb about this chapter. [] - the blurb about that chapter. [] - the blurb about this other chapter. [A] - the blurb about this appendix. [B] - the blurb about that appendix. The Chapter 1 items do not appear - in my example above, the [] represents the gray shaded rectangle that indicates a reference link, but there are no characters inside the gray. For the Appendix A items, just the LETTER appears, bolded, in a gray shaded area - the word Appendix is missing. I can click those gray areas (no Control key necessary) to jump immediately to the associated page. In OOo, if I'm on the page that has the reference link targets (like the first page of Chapter 4), I can see a shaded spot following the chapter heading, but: a) I can't select it b) if I get the cursor in or near it, the menu item Edit Fields... is grayed out for me. So, I don't know how to edit these references that were created in Word, nor how to make more of them if needed. Where's a good place to start looking? I would like the reference targets throughout the document to propagate much as they do in Word. I don't know specifically how the Word doc captures just the numbering of each reference without also capturing the text of it... but since the original author did it that way, I figure I might as well continue if it's easy to reproduce in OOo. Most of my work these days is in a Help authoring tool or in FrameMaker, so I don't use either Word or OOo that much, but I prefer OOo when necessary.

Re: [users] Compacting some cells in a different column
Johnny, you are correct that sorting does compact columns D and E. The problem still remains how to get the data out of columns A and B into columns D and E. If it is not possible to get the data out of columns A and B, then it is a help knowing that columns D and E can be compacted by doing a Sort. (I can manually copy, one row at a time, the rows in column A and B that also have a name in column C, into the same row in column D and E, and at the end Sort to compact. When a lot of rows are involved it is easier to paste on the same row and at the end doing a Sort. As compared to going up in columns D and E and compacting as each row is Pasted.

Re: [users] Compacting some cells in a different column
My guess is that there is a possibility to write a formula that would be in column D, and maybe also in column E, that would copy and paste the data into columns D and E when there is a name both columns B and C. This would make the copy and paste automatic instead of manually copying and pasting. The formula would say if there was a name in column B and C then copy A and B into D and E.

You've already said it happens around about page 119: just examine the document and see. See the blue line at the top of the page? Why? Because the page style changed.

Various ways, according to needs: o Apply the page style of the first part to the later parts of the document. o Modify the page style of the later part to include page numbers - most easily by simply using Insert | Fields | Page Number - and formatting appropriately. o Remove the manual page break by putting the cursor in front of the very first character on the first rogue page and pressing Backspace.

[users] Linux OOo 3.1.1 DEB install problem
I was trying to install the latest DEB version of OOo, but keep getting errors. I keep getting a deselecting message for each .deb package when I run the update shell script using the sudo sh . . . script command. on that file. It just lists the names of the .deb packages/files in the folder saying the deselecting message for each file. I use the sudo that is asked for to run the script, but it will not get it working. Ubuntu runs a 3.0.1 version as a default, but I do not want to wait for someone to add an update in the update system or some add on in the Synaptic Package Manager. I use Gnome, currently, for my desktop of Ubuntu 9.10. For now I will not go to KDE, but maybe later. So do not tell me to switch. I need some Gnome stuff for now and if I can find the stuff in KDE (later when I have a lot of time on my hands) then I will look into switching. I may look into a different version of Linux in a few months, after I finish some of my projects and can move my data off the Linux-box so I can change out to something else. So can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
RE: [users] footer stops showing page number
Brian Barker [mailto:b.m.bar...@btinternet.com] suggested: If there is a manual page break - as there very probably is - there will be a dark blue line along the top of the text area of the first page following the break. These lines are pretty invisible unless you are used to looking for them. How to find where/why the footer stopped containing the page-number field? You've already said it happens around about page 119: just examine the document and see. See the blue line at the top of the page? Why? Because the page style changed. How to make it resume containing the page number? Various ways, according to needs: o Apply the page style of the first part to the later parts of the document. o Modify the page style of the later part to include page numbers - most easily by simply using Insert | Fields | Page Number - and formatting appropriately. o Remove the manual page break by putting the cursor in front of the very first character on the first rogue page and pressing Backspace. Thanks. The manual page break was hidden in the start of a new chapter (which happens to have a thin black line...), so I danced a bit with getting the cursor in the right place, and finally killed the beast. After a while, jumping around among four or five applications, one loses track of what goes where. . . or what it looks like. - Kevin The information contained in this electronic mail transmission may be privileged and confidential, and therefore, protected from disclosure.

Re: [users] Grammar Error
This sounds like a dictionary problem. Either it's missing (program can't find it) or the dictionary being used is not the same language as your typing. iPhone of Gallo On 2009-10-27, at 14:13, Kadene Scarlett islandfresh...@hotmail.com wrote: every time i type a word in open office writer, it gets highlighted as wrong whether it is spelled correctly or not and i do not understand why and i would also like to know how to solve the problem quickly _ CDN College or University student?

Re: [users] Are there version control tools for openoffice?

OpenOffice.org has some document version tracking built-in. When working on the users guides we use OOo's ability to track and display changes from several users. If this is what your looking for I can go into more detail. Looking for all that, and the ability to compare different versions of the same file that diverged from a common ancestor outside when the versions were edited outside of these tools. -- Drew Einhorn - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org

You do not say what operating system and the like that would be helpful, but I am guessing Windows XP. Is this a laptop or desktop? The reason I ask is that running XP, sp3 on a laptop here from time to time I see the same type problems. I found that the computer was over heating. Giving it a good cleaning solved most to the problem, going from 528 megs of memory 2 gigs has also helped reduce the problem.

The freezing and repositioning of the cursor sounds like what happens during an autorecovery -- you might want to check Tools Options, Load/Save, General to see if you have a very short interval there. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org

Just a thought If that's happening, right-clicking on a misspelled word might show you suggestions in another language. If you can live without the spelling check, the quickest thing would be to turn it off altogether for while typing operation. You can always ask for the check explicitly, but from what you say that is currently useless. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
