Alright. Now that I know I have to hold Cntl down and hit each letter in
one felt swoop, that works. I was doing it one at a time thinking I was
going to get different numbers for each letter (not having any clue what S,
D, and T were about).
The number I caught was 680M7-(Build) 9044.

Ms. Brown:
The Build Number should stay on the screen for about 10 to 15 seconds then
the listing should start scrolling for the contributors to the
OpenOffice.org project.
The keys must be pressed in the order Cntrl (hold this key down) then s,
d, t. I don't know what this stands for.

When I go to Help: About it says 2.0.3.
I got some messages to scroll when I hit Cntl (one of the letters I was
asked to hit), but it was way too fast. So I went back and went to Help:
About and hit the Cntl D and then nothing, then the other letters and it
won't do anything.
I tried to hit the keys at the exact same time and then I also tried to
hit
Cntl and then the letter, still nothing.

When I put a date on a document, I go to Insert, Fields, Other, then
I
chose DATE and then DATE (not date fixed) and then the format I want
the
date to be and then Insert and close.
My problem is that every time that document is opened, it adds an
extra
comma between the day of the week and the month, for example:
Friday,
October 13, 2006 will show up as Friday,,,October 13,2 006 if the
document has been opened three times since its original making.
How can I keep that from happening each time it opens. I only want
it
to
keep up with the current date...
I tried this question in the forum, but have received no response.

Hi Brenda,
What version and operating system are you on? I use Windows XP, with
OOo
2.0.4. I tried what you said, inserting the field formatted like you
had
it, and I saved the document, closed it and reopened it several times,
and
no extra commas were inserted. I did this all in the span of around 5
minutes though, so if there is a time factor (like it only happens
when
the document is opened on the next day), I would have missed it.

I have OpenOffice 2.0 No other numbers are with it. This is an office
setting, so I can't upgrade.
Ms. Brown:
Can you go to the Help -> About and let me know what the results are.
If
you could also press the Cntrl+S, Cntrl+D and then Cntrl+T keys and
advise
of the build number, I would appreciate this.
