As much as I am a proponent of Open Source, <flamebait>this is one place where integrated apps from a single vendor shine: a drag-and-drop from Excel into Outlook and your done<\bait>.
Of course, most all of my email is text, not HTML, which Evolution does much better than Exchange (in that it allows text to be formatted, or, most importantly, not formatted, so I can cut-and-paste commands and command line output without the emailer "smartly" mangling... except, when replying w/ Evolution, when it inserts ">" at the fronts of lines, it then thinks it'll be smart and wrap the line that even Exchange replies leaves the text correctly verbatim... but I digress). But, every once in awhile, I need to make a fancy email with charts and graphs and B.S. to please upper management. I have not figured out a way to insert Open Office charts into Evolution. The only way I've figured out so far is to use Excel to create the chart, save the spreadsheet as HTML, look for jpeg images in the directory that Excel creates for the html (those are the charts)... then, in Evolution, select HTML mode, then insert the jpeg inline. We need a better way. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
