Hello
I have created a simple database in Base to catalogue my books and as they
are in a number of languages some of the titles and authors' names contain
characters with diacritics. I had hoped that I could enter these as special
characters as I could in a Writer document but the "special charac

It was solved by checking that the user interface language (Tools ->

Hi, if this is the first time you've installed LO on this particular
machine, it isn't a bug but an annoyance. Open LO and then go to Tools ->
Options -> Language Settings -> Languages and check that the settings there
are set to English (UK). This should then bring up the internal help.

I have to say that I'm a traditionalist. One reason I prefer LO to MS
Office is the toolbar layout. With MS Office I wasted too much time trying

This is all very well, but on my system (6.0.5.2 under Linux Mint 18.1) the

You need to specify that you want to use LibreOffice in English before you
download it. To do this you need to click on "LibreOffice in other
languages" on the right-hand side of the download web-page and then select
the particular variety of English you want to use (UK, US or ZA).
