Top post.
Once the Help/About pane is visible, hold down the Ctrl key and then press
S, D and T in sequence. The text will scroll. When the "Build number" is
clearly visible, hold down the Alt key and press the Print Screen key. This
"captures" the screen image into the clipboard as if you had made the first
step (the copy) of a copy and paste.
Now run Microsoft's Paint program: press Start, click All Programs, click
Accessories, click Paint. When the Paint program opens. Hold down the Ctrl
key and press V. This pastes the screen image you captured above. You can
now read the Build number at your leisure and write it down (you will not be
able to cut/copy and paste it unfortunately).
When you close the Paint program you will be asked "Save changes to
Untitled?". Click No.

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.
