Start here: <http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=24317> That looks to be the bug. Others via search: <http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/Search;jsessionid=8F272704F7CBCF5B34A0DD24F9BDEC2D?artifact=issuezilla+issue&query=remove%20highlight&resultsPerPage=40&scope=domain> Perhaps some added comments to that, and similar (http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=76589) will put the spotlight back on so that it can be fixed in 3.0. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
