Sounds like you both should read this:

Many of the points raised apply equally to your favourite desktop,
application, or tool. I've actually been thinking of asking the author
if i could rewrite it from an OO.o perspective.
Word Perfect and OpenOffice.org use two different models for their
method of doing a similar task. OO.o uses a well established style-based
industry model, which Microsoft Word did not invent. Reveal codes
is not the be all and end all, it does have its own limitations.
Actually TeX is the greatest Word Processor out there but you may find
LyX an implementation more to your taste. Yeah, i just couldn't resist
;)

Yes, refactoring code with the goal to increase OOo modularization is
definitely one of the interesting (and challenging) parts of the
project. Best, we can even profit from these changes in other OOo projects.

First I thought "why another project, why not populate the UI project
instead" (and call it User iXperience ;-) then I continued to read your
explanations and became more inclined to a separate UX project.
However, I'm not sure if the UI code project then should continue to
exist or if it shouldn't be a subdivision of the UX project instead,
provided that UX left the incubator status and became an accepted
project.
So, generally +1 from me.

You can't prevent the latter as well as you can't prevent the former.
Obviously there are enough people that don't read carefully enough
before buying something. So are the buyers stupid or the sellers clever?
Maybe both statements are correct.
Ciao,

Bonjour Laurent,
It's a little bit more complicated: Nederlands is spoken in Nederland and i=
n
(the northern part of) Belgi=EB.
There are some differences between Dutch Dutch and Flemish (Belgian Dutch),
like between German and Austrian German.
So there may be nl-NL and nl-BE, while officially both language communities
use the same language, Nederlands, controlled by the Taalunie (our Acad=E9m=
ie
fran=E7aise).

| DDE link to Calc In Open Office Posted: 08 Jan 2007 09:09 AM PST
Hi:
I'm trying to get data into Calc. To mirror what I'm doing now with
Excel (only because Calc failed me on this point), once I get data
into Excel, I can readily share it with colleagues, when necessary,
simply by copying and pasting the final text (not the DDE formulas).
I think you are quite correct that DDE was superceded. However, the
software I'm using has many users around the world, and once a stable
and widely-used important application is built, I think they are
perhaps reluctant to re-write it to do the latest with it. This setup
is somewhat idiot-proofed, so that even someone like me can set it up
on their own. All I did, as previously mentioned, was copy three
files from the proprietary software folder and put it into the Office
folder and then I was good-to-go. I received good support from
Thomson Financial, for setting this up in Excel (there has been some
later need for support, on some points). While the support was good
(not perfect, but good) they were not the least bit interested in
extending the discussion to other spreadsheet programs or to OLE.
