Steve: That's funny! No, not really. The best thing to do is to file and issue so that the developers are aware of this problem (search first to see if someone else already has). You will need to create and account and then go to file issue. Start here: http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/Join Let us know if you get stuck. Crystle p.s.
