The second of my three remaining problems with OpenOffice is this: I successfully converted my Word files, in which quotations were marked by single inverted commas. These reproduce correctly when printing from OpenWord. But any new ones I enter appear on screen and in print as (don't know what they are called, but little vertical dashes without the comma curl. Can anyone please tell me how I can prevent this? My other problem is that I like to use a rarish font called Charter. Openword happily converts documents into this, but obstinately leaves all endnotes untouched. I have had to change these one by one (hugely laborious, when some of my docs have 200 of them. I must be missing a trick here. Will anyone be kind enough to help? T. Steel ----- Original Message ----- From: "thomas steel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

The first of my 3 remaining problems with OpenOffice is this: I successfully converted my Microsoft Office finance files 2 months ago & have used them easily. At the end of the finance year I shunted them into a New Folder (marked 'Old'!) & happily created new ones. I now find I can't open the old files. When I try, a window appears, inviting me to save & only giving the 'Microsoft Office Excel 97-2003' option. I then have to Cancel or press Save. If I do the latter, I'm told that the file already exists & do I want to replace it? Can anyone tell me what to do? I'd be most grateful for help. ----- Original Message ----- From: "JOE Conner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Dear Joe: So many thanks for your response. Can't think why I didn't think of that solution. The problem still seems an odd one, but you have solved it for me. I hope you'll look out for my other 3 main probs when I ask in the next day or so! TS ----- Original Message ----- From: "JOE Conner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
