Does anyone know how to paste text into a Text Box inserted into a spread sheet please? The paste option doesn't seem to exist.
If you click the text box, you see the (flashing) outline and the eight coloured handles. Is this called "object mode"? That's not what you want. Double-click it and you will see instead just the (steady) outline. Is this called "editing mode"? Now you can use Edit | Paste or Ctrl+V (or Edit | Paste Special... or Ctrl+Shift+V). You can also use right-click | Paste, but you need to right-click within or immediately adjacent to existing text content. If you right-click in the text box but away from existing text content, the box selection will relax back to the other mode and you will not see Paste in the context menu.
I trust this helps. Brian Barker --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
