Those are all valid, constructive complaints. I hope that you start a new thread (not a reply to this one) for each concern. That's four new threads. People here will help you configure OOo to your needs, and if need be, bugs will be filed and OOo will be changed. You will find that the open source community is very willing to acomodate and help you, and are even willing to learn from you. I know that is in contrast to the norm with proprietary software, where insults are the only way to initiate communication with developers.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
