Hi ALL

Thanks for the hint with 4.0.6. This version is indeed very stable and it has a least one feature
which I missed in previous version. Thus I currently very happy with 4.0.6.
I used 4.0.5 before, changed to 4.1.3.2 and then back to 4.0.6. Maybe Tom is write and something

Hi :)
It sounds like you are happier with much later releases in a branch.
It makes sense to wait for the x.x.5. For a lot of people the x.x.4
is the best balance between new features and stability. If you
normally use more than 1 machine then getting a x.x.0 on one and
keeping the other at the

Hah!! Good point! I am on LO 3.5.7 on Ubuntu 12.04 and i have a

Yes, it's 2 factors.
1. LibreOffice is one of the very few packages that is good to get
straight from the horses mouth with no tweaking

Hi :)
Weirder, imo, is that while Redhat and CentOS have 4.0.4 but
Scientific has 3.4.5!
Redhat and CentOS pride themselves on being as stable as possible and
have a reputation for sticking with earlier versions of things until
they have been thoroughly experimented with in Fedora. I thought

For the most part, I tend to wait till the line goes to x.x.4 or x.x.5
before I upgrade to it.
I currently use 4.0.6 on all but one system, Ubuntu, XP, and Win7. I
have a Win7 system that I use as a testing platform and installed 4.1.3
on it. I do not use that system much though.

Hopefully there was just a misunderstanding somewhere there! Password

other security measures.
There were some problems early on, around 3.3.x maybe up to 3.4.x but

Are you using fields from a data base, or do you simply want something
like return labels where every label is the same?

I need to convert some old starwriter files (.sdw, sdd, .sdc

Wouldn't a better solution be a batch converter you could run on the

pressured to upgrade to the 4.0 or 4.1 version. I, and others it would
