Thanks for filing bugs on the issues you found. I recommend that you
change the bug into into links. This way someone that sees:
#94603 because the File ->Open dialog didnt appear till I reboot.
can click on 94603 and link to:
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=94603
etc.

BTW: I think that bug is most likely a Wine install issue as I was not
able to replicate on Win2KPro (running in VirtualBox 1.6.6) or WinXPPro.
I'll add a note to the bug to that effect when I'm finished testing again.

94604: works for me (WinXPPro & Win2KPro). Plus sign appears over the
small box in the lower right corner of the selected cell. Again, this
might be a Wine issue - graphics rendering?

94605: the behaviour is no different than MS Excel's solver (tested on
WinXPPro MS Excel 2002).

94607: you'll need to supply a sample impress file for others to test.
But I'd recommend you download the .deb version and install (it will not
affect your existing Ubuntu OOo) and see if the issue still occurs. All
of the bugs you've filed involve testing with Wine. Wine can have many
issues on it's own. If you've a copy of Win2K I'd recommend that you
install VirtualBox and test there, or on a stand-alone Windows system/drive.

I also note that you've filed all of your bugs as Linux OS when in fact
you are, again, testing the Windows version in Wine. When others go to
search for "Linux" bugs/issues, your's will show up in that catagory
even though they are "Windows" (OOo Windows with Wine actually) issues.

Are you comparing against 2.4 in Wine, or your Ubuntu OOo(U)2.4 version?
