I guess the point is having openoffice.org not other crippled office
suites.

You can still select the regular http/ftp methodology. I am not sure what
you mean by 'switch'.
Please go here:
http://download.openoffice.org/2.3.0/index.html
And click on the green block named 'Download OpenOffice.org'.

 

How exactly Microsoft sales are boosted by offering different ways on
getting OpenOffice.org. As far as I know regular http download with no
further authentication is faster than going to the closest store and
buying a box of microsoft office.

That's unfortunately probably very correct assessment. It's certainly
one that MS executives have tried to cultivate in some of their
marketing, though it would be easy enough to counter act by, among other
things, adding a line or two to the FAQ.

[discuss] Improvements to OpenOffice Writer

Unfortunately i do not have a direct answer to your issue. That does
not mean that there is not an answer or a work-around, merely that i do
not know one.

As it is an issue, not a "how do i do this" question, i suggest you
follow these steps:

1. Go to the following website and search for the feature enhancement
you seek. It may have already been placed as a RFE (request for
enhancement).
http://qa.openoffice.org/
Be aware that as OpenOffice.org is trying to cater to the greatest
common denominator first, some wants though quite valid may not be high
up on the list of to-do's. Technical writers are often power users of a
Word Processor, and OpenOffice.org simply cannot implement all possible
functions and still be a viable free download, bloat and resources
prevents this.

1a. If it already exists please vote for it.

1b. If it does not exist register yourself on the site, and report your
issue.

2. Consider supporting OpenOffice.org to program your requirement. This
is how Open Source Software truly works. Someone with the knowhow or
financial capability gets the job done. This can be accomplished in
several ways.

- Contributing direct to the code base of the program.
- Supplying an extension that people may download. (I do not know but
suspect that this modular approach is the preferred one for less
commonly used enhancements.)
- Financing an existing OO.o programmer to do either of the above.
- Paying an external programmer to create the extension required.

3. Consider supporting the program in other ways with your expertise,
for which in return, someone may develop the code you need.

Thanks I'll give all that a try. I have perhaps, been too dependant on the mouse.

[discuss] About OO.o Math and in general

Posted: 23 Nov 2007 09:17 PM PST

Hi there,

Apart from what Graham already answered: it's a special occasion that
macro's are connected to control elements.
You can do that in OpenOffice.org easily, but the macro's of MsWord are
not compatible with OpenOffice.org

Kindest regards,

Cor

I don't know.
Didn't think it worked on Linux,
but at any rate I really haven't considered it.
I'll look into it.
