If I use Insert | Sheet from File as >you suggest, then is this spreadsheet updated with new data from the >file anytime this spreadsheet is opened? Er, yes. If not, it wouldn't help with your problem! When you open the spreadsheet, you will see a dialogue asking if links to other files should be updated. If you wish to perform the update with the spreadsheet open, you can go to File | Reload (after saving any changes to the spreadsheet, of course) - which will stimulate the same dialogue.

Re: [users] Shift+F5 does not work consistently
---Original Message--- From: Thomas Blasejewicz Date: 12/19/2010 2:14:00 AM To: users@openoffice.org Subject: [users] Shift+F5 does not work consistently Good evening I am using OO3.2 on two Windows XP and one Ubuntu 10.04 machines (the latter only rarely, so I have not checked here). There is supposed to be a funktion - Shift+F5 - that will take you back to the last (cursor) postion when the document was saved. It does do so in some cases, but more often than not it does not work. Either the cursor does not move at all, or it jumps to a location I definitely did not use the last time I saved the document. Sometimes, the cursor jumps back to the last position, when I close the document and then reopen it, but then never again once I am in the document. I can have the cursor in a different position, save the document and try Shift+F5, but it always jumps back to the position when the document was last CLOSED, and not the last time it was saved. I checked also online: http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=14794 (problem solved) where someone said: "AFAIK the "last working position" is maintained on a "per user" basis. " Well, I DO have my personal information entered. And reentered. So, did I check, reenter the key combination Shift+F5 under "Tools-customize". Is there any intelligle reason, why this function works in some documents but not in others and within the same document depending on its mood (this think is like the weather: unpredictable). More important, is there any way to correct this erratic behavior? Thank you in advance for your help.

The OOo version you get from the openSUSE repository is based on the Go-OO build of OOo. This version has, as you pointed out several extensions included, but in addition to that, it also has a long list of patches and changes applied which are not included in the core OOo. These differences include things like different interface features different/additional file import/export filters, different VBA support, different way of handling password protected spreadsheets, and a whole bunch of other things. It is a lot more than the 11 extensions you referenced, and as a result does behave differently. Sometimes bugs pop up that are very specific to this build of OOo that do not affect the core OOo... that is why Ariel asked the very legitimate question about trying the version from the OOo website C. -- Clayton Cornell ccorn...@openoffice.org OpenOffice.org Documentation Project co-lead - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
Re: [users] RE: Open Suse - 11.3_X64 Running OOO 3.2.1 - Running Painfully Slow in Comparison
Dear Clayton: No, I am not using 64 bits, I do have it, but I did not installed, because does not work well with the games. I am using Windows XP professional in 32 bits. But in the other hand.I just had a crash, and reinstalled the application and I did not had time to see if Office.org application correct the anomaly. Tomorrow, let you know about it. Thank you for your time. Have great Holidays and a Happy New Year you and your whole family. Me. ---Original Message--- From: Clayton Date: 12/18/2010 11:57:53 PM To: users@openoffice.org Subject: Re: [users] RE: Open Suse - 11.3_X64 Running OOO 3.2.1 - Running Painfully Slow in Comparison On 12/19/2010 02:42 AM, Aphofis Scott wrote: > Clayton Thanks for the reply. > > Indeed I have been very suspicious about possible Kernel Faults as I > know there are many many issues with the released X_64 Kernel. > > I have maintained the suspicion that past and current Kernel Releases > never allocate sufficient Cache buffers despite how much RAM is > available.

This has absolutely nothing at all to do with OOo and the issue you're experiencing. > Can you confirm that OOO really is a 64bit App?? Ask on the openSUSE mailing list. The version of OOo you're using is not the one from the OOo website it is the one built by the openSUSE guys (and yes, if you've got a 74 bit openSUSE install, you've got a 64 bit OOo version). The fact it's 64 bit or 32 bit has exactly zero impact on the issue you're having. 32 bit apps run just fine in 64 bit Linux installs. Anyway, please take this to the right place... the problem you're having is specific to openSUSE 11.3 and nothing at all to do with OOo. C. (I had the same problem with my openSUSE 11.3 install and resolved it as described in my first reply) -- Clayton Cornell ccorn...@openoffice.org OpenOffice.org Documentation Project co-lead - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
