[libreoffice-users] list boxes not stable

My list box disaster just don't quit. To this point, I've learned that the only quick, simple way to get a list box onto a form is to use the list box wizard. Last night it worked. Tonight it worked. Then, it stopped. I now have a form with 5 list boxes. Three have spontaneously, quite with

[libreoffice-users] Command line (convert) parameter(s)

Hi all, I've been looking into the command line parameters for LibO. Using these, it is possible to do some interesting things, such as converting from one format to another without having to run the LibO gui. An example of what I'm talking about is to convert your odt file to docx: soffice.exe -
