Group,
My wife is running OOo 1.1.4 on WinXP. She says:
``I need to use accent marks for my Spanish words.
I can't figure it out.''
I've check the Insert - Special Character... You can insert, say an
`o' with a tilde over it. But this isn't very flexible or fast. I
didn't see an `n'
Rene,
Did you try killall soffice.bin / killall -9 soffice.bin?
Running `killall -9 soffice.bin' fixed my problem.
Thanks!

Mr. I. M. Williams,
Why have new file formats been introduced with Version 2 of OpenOffice?
Because the new file format supports the Oasis OpenDocument file format

adoption) by other free software projects and by governments.

Does anyone know if OOo typically hangs with a Ctrl-c (I wouldn't
recommend testing it yourself!). Possibly this isn't good practice, but
I know other graphical programs (the GIMP) can hand this operation.
Is this a bug?
Thanks,

So life was fine until the PDA running Microsoft Pocket PC enters your

I'm tired of people sending me Microsoft Office files. This is a threat
to my freedom and my bank account: the sender is expecting me to use a
secret format, controlled by a powerful corporation; and it is a very
expensive product.
I propose that we stop accepting such files.

There are those who disagree -- it's called free will and free choice.
You don't get it. Freedom is what's at stake with the ubiquity of

My wife is making a presentation with OOo Impress. She likes the left
