Depending on what the unique ID is for, in one app I use the date/time
function in the ISO format. If 1S isn't enough graduation, take it down to
milliseconds. Then you have the advanteage of having the date and time each
ID was created and it'll be automatically unique.

To do it manually, enter the number 1 in, say, the cell A1. Then click 
in the cell and it should be highlighted, with a small black square 
"handle" at the bottom right of the cell. Click and drag that down and 
the cells will be filled sequentially.

Are you sure it is Calc?  As a rule your not required to have any Unique 
entries in a spreadsheet.  That is not to say it cannot be done.  The 
quickest that I can think of is to use numbers, place 1 in the first 
cell and hit enter.  Then click on the cell, you will see a small box on 
the lower right hand corner.  Place the mouse pointer on this box, it 
changes to a + sign.  Press the left mouse button and drag the block 
down the column.  The numbers will increase as you go down and each will 
be different.


A database _is_ required to have a Unique entry or things can get messed 
up big time.

Also look for vendors that offer more than just the install software on
a CD.  I am not talking
about any claim of support [Except Oracle's offer], but added things
like the latest  documentation
files from the side included in the CD.

When I give people a CD with the latest version of OOo, I include the
latest documentation files
from the site, along with any other support documents, templates,
extensions, etc., that I find
useful.  I stuff the CD full, and sometimes I add other software like
FireFox, doPDF, and some
great security software that are free to download.

Also make sure you are not charged too much for a CD with freely
downloaded software.  I saw
a "person" want $30 for a CD that just had OOo on it.  That would leave
$20 or more profit after
the cost of the CD and shipping is taken into account.

Avery still has templates for free.  Here is the link to one of them.  I
do not know
if it is the same as the "older" Microsoft one, but since Avery makes
labels, their
templates should work.  I know that I have used some of their templates
on OOo
before.

[users] RE: Cassette Sleeve Template?

Harold,

I think I know what you're looking for; here's a URL to a Microsoft template 
for music (hope referring to "that" site doesn't get me removed from this list):

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/CT010144468.aspx#ai:TC001012999|

It's an older template, so Microsoft may not check your system to see if you 
have any of their software before permitting the download.  They do that for 
the newer templates.  (I have both Microsoft and OpenOffice on my system.)

If you can't download the template from their site, please let me know, and I 
can attach it and send it to you privately.  I do a LOT of audiocassettes (for 
myself and my nearly-blind mother), and have adapted a template for my 
preferences.

Rummaging around on my system, I also found another audio cassette insert 
template, which is even older (or perhaps I got it from another place); this 
one just has lines (no background image).

Another bit of trivia, some other software and paper distributors call audio 
cassette inserts "J-cards" (don't know why). 

Hope this helps.

Can anyone point me at a template for Writer to create a "sleeve" for an old

hour per side), c90 and c120 for recording from one's radio? I've searched high 
and low but ...

Ideally the template should have horizontal lines dividing the sleeve into 3 
sections (Title, Details and Footer) and a line down the middle dividing it for 
details of the two separate sides of the cassette. The size of the various 
sections is, of course, critical as the printed result has to be folded along 
those horizontal lines to fit 3 sides of the cassette box.

I suspect this is easy to explain: you have a print range defined on 
the first sheet.  When you copy the sheet, the print range definition 
is not carried over.


In the first case, you end up with a print range defined on the first 
sheet but not on the second.  When you have any print range defined 
anywhere in a Calc spreadsheet, only material within a print range is 
printed.  So your second sheet, without any print range defined, fails 
to print at all.  Perhaps you expect that a print range affects only 
material on the sheet on which it is defined, and that other sheets in 
the same spreadsheet will print fully, but this is not so.


In the second case, when you copy the material into a new spreadsheet, 
it does not matter that the pasted material is not in a print range 
because - so far, at least - you have not defined a print range

When I go to page-break preview the copied sheet is all greyed out - the 
text and numbers are visible, but the background is greyed.  When I then 
print preview it, there is no display.  If I print preview the copied 
sheet without first page-break previewing it, again there is no display.


The original first sheet however can both page-break preview and print 
preview just fine.


To experiment, I copied over the same sheet into a new workbook and now 
it all works as expected.  However, I want to keep this contained within 
one workbook and work on one while keeping the original unchanged as a 
control.  But, given the above description I don't trust this to work 
reliably unless I know how to correct it.


Interestingly enough, when I repeated the above procedure in the new 
workbook, the sheets all page-break and print preview as expected.  What 
would be helpful, if possible, is:


(a) understanding why this happened in the first workbook but not in the 
second, and
(b) how can I fix this without taking the chance that it won't happen if 
I copy the sheets into a new workbook?


Can anyone help me to figure this out, because in Excel I can do this 
with impunity, but apparently not in Calc.


Thanks for any assistance on this.

Here the large chains have given up on them. I found a small shop that would
sell me a pack of 10 but that's too many. I can't find them in smaller
quantities

Over here in the USA, only the large chain retail stores seems to carry
these cassettes, usually next to the micro cassette for business
micro-cassette
recorders.  So maybe they could be found in a business supply shop/store as
well.

Charity shops are reputed to have these available - presumably often used ones.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, blind people apparently retain a need for 
them.  The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) will sell 
you C60s and C90s by post.  They appear to have a shop at their 
premises in Judd Street - http://tinyurl.com/RNIBJuddSt - where you 
may be able to obtain them over the counter.


I trust this helps.

Why one earth would you need to do that?  Does anyone still use 
cassettes?  I tossed all mine quite a while ago.  My VHS cassettes will 
be the next to go.

No there is not.  But that does not prevent you from getting the 
source code and building one for yourself.




Sure and after you´ve done that you can go on and install that truck 
motor into your kids tricycle like you always wanted to do ;-)

[users] Cassette Sleeve Template?

[Harold Fuchs]

Can anyone point me at a template for Writer to create a "sleeve" for an old
fashioned audio cassette - you know, the ones that came* in c60 (1 hour, 1/2
hour per side), c90 and c120 for recording from one's radio? I've searched
high and low but ...

Ideally the template should have horizontal lines dividing the sleeve into 3
sections (Title, Details and Footer) and a line down the middle dividing it
for details of the two separate sides of the cassette. The size of the
various sections is, of course, critical as the printed result has to be
folded along those horizontal lines to fit 3 sides of the cassette box.

sells them ...
