OpenOffice still does not have a grammar checker.

But under 2.0 and up you can use multiple languages easily and have
them spell-checked without changing the default language. Indeed,
simply changing the default language now does nothing in respect to
changing text language. The languages you use in your document and
which you wish to be spell checked can be entirely different from the
default language.

The direct formatting specification for language is found under Format
-> Character -> Font. Language can also be set for any paragraph style
or character style by right-clicking on the style in the Stylelist,
selecting "Modify ...". selecting the Font tab, and changing the
language. So you can apply different languages to any part of your
docuent either through style or by direct formatting.

Spell checking works fine on mxied language documents, calling in the
proper dictionaries transparently and often suggests a possible
language in which a particular "error" might be assigned to (that is, a
language in which the error would be correct).

Gnucash, Kmymoney, and Moneydance are different bookeeping softwares. But
I dont think there is any integration with OOo.

Having a further research I find TinyERP which does have integration but
is not a real bookeeping software. Is more like a Business Management
System.

To do Bookeeping in Calc there are macros such as Calc2qif
(http://ooomacros.org/user.php#102787)

[discuss] Translation - library or part of a complete OpenOffice.org?

Then I think the best place to ask this question is from the people
working at the project at

Or, you can pay $70 for StarOffice (which is based on OpenOffice.org) - and
it can open a lot more files than OOo. I'm not sure if .wdb is one of them=
,
but there is a very good chance that it is. (StarOffice doesn't work on
Mac, so I can't say for sure.)

Hi Rigel,
 
You're right and I apologise for my adding to the noise on this thread,
I guess I didn't feel it would stand out that much in the midst of
suggestions to replace booth babes with nerf ball fights ;-)

Sorry about that,

Cyrille

I've never had a problem trusting software with easter eggs. I've never

they are still included is that no one has bothered to remove them.

[discuss] one last point

Posted: 02 Feb 2006 09:56 PM PST

Your right!!! I never knew about the package manager. I just did a quick
search and i could only find examples of packages to change the widgets
using the Native Widget Framework... do you know if there is a central
location for all plugins? kind of how FireFox has an extensions page that
is organized into different types of extensions.

Thanks
Rob

[discuss] Derive para style from char style?

Posted: 02 Feb 2006 02:20 PM PST

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi Guiseppe,
 

I found something about CSS but not directly what I meant. We already
have that one paragraph style can be derived from another one, only
differences are stored (what is very comfortable, I use it often). My
wish is simply that paragraph styles can be derived from character
styles if you want it, instead of giving font and font effects
explicitely for paragraph styles (what should be possible anyway). This
could help to have ONE basic font for the whole document as far as this
is possible. If it turns out that this font does not look nice on some
printer or presentation - change just one place, and you have a
completely changed document.

I don't know whether paragraph and character styles are so similar
that this is possible, but it would be a nice feature (after bug-
fixing outline numbering and adding an INSTALL file to OO2 :-)

Greetings

Reinhard
