That's a good approach. We will be competing with the BSA, which is also=

Is there a way to add OOo to a list so that it would automatically get=20

They can't be, at least if the article and other earlier ones are=20

2002 and 2003. I recall that in 2001 they popped up in security=20

continue to bypass for the foreseeable future, all anti-malware tools.

I can't recall any specific articles from 1999 or 2000, but here's one=20
from 2003 talking about events in 2002:

That was March 2003. This is April 2006.

May I ask what purpose is there in changing it either way?

[discuss] Tab Fill Chr Problem??

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the compliment. I only try to be a good user of thing OOo
offers. Well, that indeed gives one mighty possibilities ;-)

I've seen the short discussion: clicking on the ruler brings up the
dialog with the first tab-stop selected, independent of where you click.
However, isn't that the same as in Microsoft's version of office?
Then still you could wish to change it. But that's an RFE, not a bug...

Greetings,
Cor

When it comes to desktop computers, they really aren't that hard to
build from parts, and the parts are actually fairly easy to find. For
$30 to $100 depending on how fancy you want to get, you can get a case
with power supply, for $65. you can get a motherboard, for $64. on up
you can get an AMD 64 bit processor to go with it. Memory goes for
about $20. per quarter gig, an 80 gig HD goes for about $50.00, and a
good all format DVD burner goes for about $40. Add externals like KB,
mouse, etc. and you have a complete system less software.
Some of the same companies that sell desktop parts will sell
bare-bones systems and even some laptops that way.

[discuss] Math syntax

Hi Thomas,

In physics you actually use the halves standalone, so that the <bra|
appears independently from the |ket>.

But apparently the
left langle bra mline right none
or
left none mline ket right rangle
notations can be used to achieve this.

[discuss] OOo Base: Sorting numeric values in a normal text field

Posted: 04 Apr 2006 02:00 AM PDT

An other option is to use space-strings with a fix character count
and fill in your numbers from right to left, i.e. rightalign your numbers,
so that they end in the second and then append your modifier.
Your example then look like:

rooms
" 1 "
"19 "
" 2 "
"22 "
"20C"
"15 "
" 2A"
" 2B"
"23 "
" 4 "
"36A"
"12 "
"16 "
"29 "
"36 "

With a query like:
SELECT room FROM Table1 ORDER BY cast( Left(room,2) as
integer),Substr(room,3,1)
rooms should ordered appropriate.

SQL-Syntax and more can be found at
http://hsqldb.org/doc/guide/ch09.html
to avoid additional spaces.
