Hi :)
Apparently the Microsquish definition of "compatibility" is VERY different,
perhaps even the exact opposite. Many people apparently think that
Microsquish is the only authority on anything to do with computers so
logically that might lead them to suspect all entries in the Oxford
Dictionary.
Anne,
If you are not experiencing the problem then you are probably using
an older version of LO. This bug has now been fixed in the latest
update of LO. Early versions always opened at the point where the
cursor was located when the document was saved/closed. That was lost
somewhere in ve
This is more analogous to having a document with lots of complex graphics.
If you use the vertical scroll bar to move down the page, there sometimes is
a lag, again, because of the graphics. However, in this case, there are no
graphics to cause a lag. Put another way, we're all familiar with the

If you're referring to when the computer seems to have a mind of its
own & takes off scrolling down the page,
then this is a problem with these new machines - there is
nothing that can be done other than waiting for it to stop;
then just get back to where you were & s

I'm running Windows 7 Pro on a 5.5 year old Dell XPS 16. Just to put this in
context: For years, I continued to use MS Word from Office 2000. Then, it
started crashing. I switched to Open Office. Worked for awhile; then it
started crashing. Tried a number of fixes, none of which worked. Swit
