Re: [users] Open Office Help
Hello Gerard: May I ask you: What part of OpenOffice.org are you trying to use? Will this be in Writer, or Base, or Calc, or perhaps Impress? What purpose are you attempting to have these things you want examples for serve? This will help get examples.

Re: [users] Fw: unsubscribe

If it's the first line, might it be more prominent? I wrote the previous email from my iPhone and I found lines to wrap almost always, so a shorter line would be needed. I also noticed that I very rarely scroll to the bottom of my email on an iPhone and usually miss out on the oh-so-familiar unsubscribe directions. As a matter of fact, gmail grabs whatever is hidden in the headers and presents an unsubscribe button when someone clicks "show details" on any message sent by this list. So as several others have said on this thread which is now turning into a giant waste of time and resources, the best solution is to probably respond off-list to those who ask to be unsubscribed and ignore the offending posts. If we can improve the hit percentage by putting unsubscribe directions at the top, then all the better. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
Re: [users] Openoffice Security Issue
Thanks for the information Brian. I have tried the procedure you outlined using the document provided by Ahamed. Prior to being able to change any options such as cell protection, the entire sheet must be Unprotected. This requires no password at first. I'm still not sure if it should, as the document Ahamed provided is .xls and may or may not have a password. After removing the sheet protection, individual cells or ranges of cells may be protected or not. In the document provided by Ahamed it appears that all cells are marked protected. After following the procedure (two attempts were required to succeed) and reapplying the sheet protection, the desired operation is achieved; The first three columns are protected as if they were static data, and the remaining columns can be modified as if they were a working document. So the only question which remains for me, is if the program should ask for a password prior to unprotecting the sheet. As has been suggested by others addressing concerns such as this, it may be an issue with MSO2k3 not protecting the document properly in the first place. Is there any fix for this? It seems like a heavy concern for users of the software. Can someone who has access to MSO2k3 and other versions please test whether the password is stripped after the proprietary document format is opened and modified by OOo? This discussion should be moved to a pertinent issue.

Re: [users] Openoffice Security Issue
Upon investigating this attachment, I have found that the entire sheet is protected, which is easily removed without any password. I cannot find any way to protect only a given range of cells with OOoCalc. There is no respect for the security added by MSO2k3 and no way to protect only a given range of cells, which this document clearly demonstrates an example of the use of such a feature. This is not the first time I have heard of this issue. I do believe there is an issue in the issue tracker open on this subject. Some have said that the issue does not exist, but I can see that it does. I have used OOo 3.1 RC2 for PPC-Mac, en-GB to do this testing. I have also tested with OOo 320m2 for PPC-Mac en-US and the result is the same.

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 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?
