Select the .ods/.xls data, copy. Open a new writer doc, Edit|Paste Special|Unformated Text. Select the data that you just pasted & Table|Convert|Text to Table. You'll then have to adjust the columns, fonts, etc., to suit your page/preferences. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
