But you're right. It's a major pain to open up thunderbird / mozilla. It

[discuss] Regarding Integration with MS Outlook

Hi Virag,

What exactly do you mean?

In OOo you can do
- File|Send|Document as e-mail, or
- File|Send|Document as PDF attachment.
Can be done with Outlook as well.

With OOo you can create documents
- that you attach to Outlook
- where you paste contents of in an Outlook mail.

So pls, explain what you are looking for that is not possible with
Outlook and OOo.

Thanks a lot

End users see what the program will and will not do. They know (at least some of them)
what they need and if a particular program fills that need. Developers who do not listen
to what end users want will end up missing the boat.

OOo.org is a great product and has helped me with the process of becoming Microsoft

[discuss] Strategy - was mail client

On Sun, 2006-04-30 at 10:49 +0000, jonathon wrote: 
 

It is, its down to Sun's internal policies as to what gets done jsut as
much as the community perspective - some would say more so. That is
politics - micropolitics perhaps, but nevertheless politics.
 

It will be dependent on someone with the authority in Sun who has the
vision to see why it is of strategic importance. That really is down to
politics not necessarily our version of rationality. One hopes
politicians are always informed by rationality but its not always the
case and of course different people see rational arguments differently,
that is the essence of politics. If the decision maker believes that
code efficiency is not too important and will take a lot of effort with
little in the way of visible returns they might well go for a short term
fix that would translate into eg more desktop sales of Star Office or
whatever.
 
strategy would probably be the obvious priority. Sun has other
constraints so their perspective could well be different. Point is we
don't really know and at least it would motivate the grass roots
community members to be part of the discussion. Its months since the
launch of 2.0 so there must surely be some plans for 2.1 and 3.0. Its
rather surprising that these have not been discussed much here on the
discuss list. What is the discuss list for? One would expect to discuss
strategy issues at length and then come to some decisions that everyone
can get behind. Seems difficult for eg the marketing project to market
when there is no clear development path. We also waste a lot of time
dealing with threads like the mail client one because no-one knows
whether or not the issue is relevant to current plans or not.

So what is the development strategy? Is there a reason for it being a
secret?

You can do this already with send as email. Or maybe you are describing
the OLE stuff the Outlook does with Word. If so, what advantage or
benefit would this give you? If the same integration between OOo and an
email client (eg. TB, Evo), it would be the mail client that would need
to have the code to instigate the link, as in the Outlook -> Word case.

Posted: 26 Apr 2006 10:04 AM PDT

McNealy is going out and Schwartz is stepping in. Has there been a
statement about how this will/won't affect java and OpenOffice.org ?

Also will the new CEO Schwartz, as opposed to McNealy's whining, be more
supportive of the GPL and the LGPL ?

McNealy's done some good things during his tenure, but lately it has
seemed like it's time for him to be busy with other things.

The menu 'Edit' -> 'Edit Chart Data' is only enabled if the chart has
its own data (not from calc or writer table).
If you have created a chart from spreadsheet cells you can modify the
range by doing the following:
Leave the chart and open the contextmenu on it (while it is not
active!). There you can choose 'Modify Data Range...'.
This option is much to tricky to find in the old chart. In the chart
reimplementation this option will be offered while editing the chart.
If you like you can have a look at the current state of the charts
reimplementation on the chart web page:

Posted: 23 Apr 2006 11:57 AM PDT

Alexandro Colorado írta: 
Hello!
Thank you for the quick answeer! 
I have got a good news for you! OpenOffice.org Premium utilize same
technology as OpenOffice.org, so we can include templates based on
their language. I have created a different pool for Premium extras, but
it works like the original. So OOo Premium has two language specific
template stack, one is the original, the second is for the premium
extras. This one is selectable from the installer.
So the technology is available. As you know the Premium edition has more
enhancement like Gallery, Fonts and others. They might need some extra
work (mainly translation and recompilation with extra contetns) but the
Hungarian users liked the idea of all-in-one sollution. 
Your way to solve this game is also interesting, but currently I prefer
the all in one type package...

(openOffice.org) since it's reincarnation from Star Office 5.2 and of

What you may have found might be an issue not a bug. The ability of OOo
to export data in Microsoft file formats may never be 100% perfect
(unless publish the details of these currently secret formats), but it
100% better than Microsoft programs ability to export data in Open
Document file format.

Could you please post an example of a formula (not a Calc Sheet - OOo
lists strip attachments ) which does not translate from Calc to Excel.
This will allow your claim to be tested by others and if it can be
replicated, an issue can be filed for the developers to review. To file
an issue/bug report or a request for enhancement go to:

Setup unable to register security service

Posted: 08 Feb 2004 12:44 PM PST

Yes, the SQL Server is a member server in the same
domain. No, the machine I am installing on is a member
server too. I actually tried it on two different servers
thinking that Exch2K3 or SharePoint Portal 2K3 might be
having something to do with it, but I get the same failure
on both servers.

As for the user I am using, it's kind of funny because it
IS the domain "Administrator" account. It's not actually
a member of the Print Operators Group, but I wouldn't
think that would matter considering all of the other
privileges it has.

It still feels like a permissions issue, but it shouldn't
be. I was also thinking it may be some DLL file that's
corrupt on the CD or something.

Any other thoughts?? I appreciate your reply.

I had Visual Studio 2003 on my development machine and

target runtime in VS2K3 for ASP.NET and Windows
application templates but the option is not available for
component libraries like the ones that inherit from
ServicedComponent. I have both frameworks installed, so I
thought about compiling my .NET serviced component using
the csc from 1.0. But, I really wanted to develop from
within VS because I intended to call .NET components from
my COM+ callout. As a result, I installed VS 2002 and
built my project there. When I moved it to the CRM server
and ran RegSvcs, it intalled just fine. Be advised that,
per the documentation, you should change the account
under which the callout COM+ application runs to a domain-
level account with service-level permissions. Also check
the "out" component in COM+ installed with CRM. It has
the ICRMCallout interface. I had to change the account

Hi BearSki,

If I understand you correctly :

You have Works 6 discs.

You have the Win Xp Pro operating system (reinstalled).

You cannot find a file (DVD LIST) that contains a listing of
your DVD collection, containing 417 entries ?

You have reinstalled Works 6.0.

If this is the case then perhaps this helps,

Place you CD/RW disc into the drive.

Open Windows explorer.

Start>Search>For Files or Folders

Set the Lookin to 'My Computer'

Enter the search item DVDLIST

If you are successful in finding this file then you may copy it to
your hard drive ( advisable) and/or double-click it to have
Works run and load it ready for use.

HTH,

Yep, for sure David.
I'll keep the programs, but will uninstall them :)
It was only recently I found out I could copy and paste images

prior to that I always moved them within explorer.

Makes one wonder just how many other little helpful hints

Hi Simon,

Perhaps create new user account in Windows XP.

Switch to this new account to start Works and see if

Lost documents on Word 2003

Posted: 29 Dec 2012 04:27 AM PST

When I open Word (2003) some of my documents are missing from the box. I can retrieve them using My Recent Documents but when I then resave them my folders are missing from the box. This has been going on for about a week.

Can't modify or delete word document.

Posted: 28 Dec 2012 04:28 PM PST

I'm having problems with a microsoft word document.  When I try to save the document in Word 2007, the program tells me it's a read-only file, but file properties indicate that it is not.  When I try to delete the file in Windows 7 Explorer, the program tells me it is being used by Microsoft Word, when in fact it is not.  Task manager indicates that word is not running.  Malware bytes file unlocker was unable to delete the file.  I noticed that the properties indicate that the file was "created" in 2012, but "last modified" in 2008.   Also, when I have saved the problem file as a new "non-read-only" file, the problem shows up in the new file.  I know have a dozen large files with the same problem.  Any ideas on how to delete the file?

Need Old Word 2003 Autotext Dialog Box Recreated

Posted: 28 Dec 2012 12:15 PM PST

Does anyone know if there is a replica Autotext Dialog Box for Word 2010?  

I really miss the ease of use of the old version (i.e., it being automatically in alphabetical order, and being able to add a new version right in the dialog box by selecting the name from the drop-down list).  

It would be wonderful if someone could write a macro to duplicate this functionality.

Below is a link to the dialog box in question.

Installin Office 2003

Posted: 19 May 2004 05:39 PM PDT

YOu can install Office on both partitions but to have Outlook use the same
..pst file, move your current .pst file to the drive/location of your choice.
Open Outlook on each partition - then close it and delete the new .pst file
it creates. Open Outlook again and when it complains, point it to the .pst
file you saved. Open the other partition and and do the same for finding
the .pst file.

There, they now share the same .pst file.

Office 2003 Administrative Install

Posted: 17 May 2004 08:57 PM PDT

No the latest setup won't help you here...

Even though as you step through the CIW it would appear that it allows this, it doesn't. Microsoft has stated that to create a Local Installation Source requires that the installation source be in compressed form (i.e. from the CD), not uncompressed form of admin install point.

Like you I wanted the best of both worlds so to speak. I settled on copying the CD to disk and running CIW against the MSI there to create my custom transform. See:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork/2003/two/ch3/DepC06.htm

I'm using the latest setup.exe from:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork/2003/journ/NewSetupEXE.htm

and using the new ENFORCECACHE in the setup.ini file. In addition to setting:
CDCACHE=2
DELETEABLECACHE=0

this "Sets the local installation source to NoCleanUp in the Windows registry, so that even when users run the Disk Cleanup Wizard, the local installation source is not removed. "

This all works fine for the install, but the problem I am having with this setup is that if I try to chain updates to office in the setup.ini file I get prompted for the installation media!!! At this point nothing satisfies that request and I have to abort the patch install. Even if I try to apply the "full" patch (which isn't supposed to require the install files) not the "binary" patch I get prompted for the media. I have way over the 2.5GB required to get the complete source cached local. I have verified it is there with the files present (although after the first failed patch a few files like sku011.cab are removed and later prompted for when you try to run that same patch again or another one) and that the permissions are correct for access to it. Also since I have CDCACHE=2 in the setup.ini (which I verified from looking at the setup logs is getting parsed correctly), the install should abort if it can not cache the source.

Anyway sorry for stating my current problems in your thread, just wanted you to see some of the issues that might be in your future! :-) I will start another thread for this "chained updates" issue, but if anyone has successfully chained updates please let me know. I am following this:

Hi Joel,

1706 error is: No valid source could be found for product X. There are a
few possible reasons for this.

1. Only Administrators have access to the Office Admin Point on the network
- Add appropriate permissions to source files.
2. There are some missing registry keys that need to be repared. Follow the
articles in Issue 2 to make sure the appropriate keys are there.

RESOLUTION:
=============
Operating system considerations for a multilingual installation of
Office The Microsoft Windows 2000 and Microsoft Windows XP operating
systems both support international features of Microsoft Office 2003. In
some cases, you
may need to set a specific system locale for Office to support the
desired language.........

Thank you very much for your exhaustive description. I will study it and act
accordingly.

From my first reading, do I understand correctly that under WinXP, with MS
Office 2003, I will not need MS Office 2000 any more to provide me with

I think, 1) is not a big deal since I can extract the correct key for

For 2) I found no solution. Windows XP activation can be automated by
