[discuss] Printing labels

Yes, here's an idea -- open Help and search for Printing Address Labels.
From your description I believe you got through the wizard and perhaps
saw your database fields but did not select the database rows to
actually merge in the data. There is no "Print the Label' button, you
simply use File/Print like with any document, merged or not.

the instructions in Help worked fine for me, give it a try,

Its interesting that people will download acrobat reader and install it
without complaint but that they won't do the same with OOo - ok OOO is
bigger but the latest versions of acrobat reader are 10s of meg as a
download. As long as OOo doesn't increase massively in size, as
bandwidth and familiarity both increase perhaps downloading and
installing OOo will become just like downloading and installing Acrobat
reader. You could try adding to your e-mail to open this file atachment
download and install OOo <link>. Maybe we should all try it for a couple
of months to see what happens :-)

[discuss] Virus

One of the reasons we are migrating our company to Linux is that the
risk of virus damage is much, much lower. OOo is a key part of that
migration strategy. The only problem we have is with "lock-in" to Sage
Accounts but since Sage is working on a web based version we will soon
be able to say good bye to Windows viruses, malware and all that
business risk on every machine. In all the business risk assessments I
see, no-one seems to consider the risk posed by viruses except in terms
of using anti-virus software. Removing yourself from a virus ridden
environment seems to be much safer.

[discuss] Doc. Templates under "File," "New."

This is one of roughly half a dozen features, that lawyers require,
that aren't available for OOo.

The _current_ workaround is to create a template for each type of
pleading, for each court.

AFAIK, the lawyers in California that use OOo, print the documents to
specially lined and numbered paper.
 

If the exact specifications for each type of pleading are given, then
you _might_ be able to persuade somebody on the list to create the
required templates.
 

The issue isn't copyright, but technological. Specifically, getting
the lines, numbers, and text to flow correctly.
 

I'm not aware of anything that is generally available, that meets
California State Local Rules.

BTW, the biggest issue in using OOo, is creating the _Table of
Authorities_ for the pleading.
 

"Pro Se" and "foolproof way", are mutually exclusive terms. :(

The court in the southern city of Shenzhen on Wednesday sentenced 11
people to jail terms of up to six-and-a-half years for making
high-quality counterfeit software that was sold in 36 countries,
Microsoft said in a statement.

The first clue that genuine Microsoft products were not being offered,
was that it was "high quality software".

[discuss] LOVE 2 USE OPENOFFICE

Came this utterance fomulated by uditha heertath to my mailbox:
 

Ny recommendation is to get a flash stick from your local TV/computer
shop and take it to an Internet Cafe. Tell them you want to download
OpenOffice.org and they will help. The latest version only works on
Windows XP or Vista but older versions are still available for 98/ME.
