Re: Static date
Ruben van Amelsvoort (2013-07-26 18:18):
Greetings,
I'm looking for a way in OpenOffice Calc to get the current date in a cell,
but keep it that date too. So just the simple Date function doesnt work.
For example, it has to show 26-07-2013 because thats todays date, but it
still has to show 26-07-2013 tomorrow too. Is this possible? Thanks!
Kind regards,
Ruben van Amelsvoort
Add below to your macros and then add a button to your toolbar linked to
that macro. Done. You now have a button that can insert current date.
rem --
rem inserts current date to the selected cell
rem --
sub insert_now_date
rem
--
rem define variables
dim document as object
dim dispatcher as object
rem
--
rem get access to the document
document = ThisComponent.CurrentController.Frame
dispatcher = createUnoService("com.sun.star.frame.DispatchHelper")
rem
--
dim args1(0) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args1(0).Name = "StringName"
args1(0).Value = Format(Date, "-MM-DD")
dispatcher.executeDispatch(document, ".uno:EnterString", "", 0,
args1())
end sub
rem --
Note. By replacing ``Format(Date, "-MM-DD")`` with ``Time`` you can
insert current time. Full date and time would be: ``Format(Date,
"-MM-DD") +" "+ Format(Time, "HH:MM:SS")``
Regards,
Nux.

If you don't get a notification, let me know what version of 3.4.1 you have installed (language and platform) and I can check as well. -Rob > Dale Erwin > Jr. 28 de Julio 657, Depto. 03 > Magdalena del Mar, Lima 17 PERU > http://leather.casaerwin.org > > > On 7/23/2013 4:29 AM, Rob Weir wrote: >> >> The Apache OpenOffice project is pleased to announce the immediate >> availability of OpenOffice 4.0.

Problem
Dear Open Office, Having used Open Office successfully for quite some time now on my iMac, I recently downloaded Open Office 4. I am now experiencing failure to open incoming attachments with a drop-down saying General Error. General input/output error. My own outgoing attachments appear to work normally. Have you any ideas? Help gratefully received – this is a bit urgent!! Yours, Bernard Adams - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
Re: Apache OpenOffice 4.0 is now available
Automatic "check weekly", evidently doesn't work. I forced a check for update and it was positive and went to the Update site. Haven't worked with the sidebar that much, so have no opinion, thus far. Hoping that other little problems, sited by others, are fixed.

Re: Apache OpenOffice 4.0 is now available
Ciao Andrea, At "Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org -> Online Update" I find that "Check for updates automatically" is selected as is "Every Week" and it also reports "Last checked: 07/29/13, 05:08:00PM" which was several hours before I sent that email. This must be the default, because I have never seen this page before. However, if I manually click on the Check Now button, it does find that 4.0.0 is available, but I did not download it yet. Wonder why I never received the notice. I have now enabled "Download updates automatically" and I will not manually download 4.0 for a while longer just to see if this works. I'm also going to change it to check Every Day for a while so that I don't have to wait another week.

Re: Apache OpenOffice 4.0 is now available
BTW, did I read that is necessary to uninstall 3.4 before installing 4.0?

As far as the update notifications go, I have seen over 100K downloads in the past week from in-product update checks. These use a special URL so we can identify them. So mechanism appears to be working for most people. The developer who worked on that area is on vacation, but I'll point him to this thread when he gets back. -Rob > > Dale Erwin > Jr. 28 de Julio 657, Depto. 03 > Magdalena del Mar, Lima 17 PERU > http://leather.casaerwin.org > > On 7/30/2013 6:18 PM, Dale Erwin wrote: >> >> Ciao Andrea, >> >> At "Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org -> Online Update" I find that >> "Check for updates automatically" is selected as is "Every Week" and it also >> reports "Last checked: 07/29/13, 05:08:00PM" which was several hours before >> I sent that email.

Perhaps if you have OO in your Linux repos, you don't have to uninstall an earlier version, but In PCLinuxOS, I found it necessary to uninstall the earlier version--I still had all the rpms from 3.3.x (whatever it was) in ~/Downloads and I had to rm them. I don't know if I had to uninstall the entries from Synaptic, but I did, anyway, to be on the safe side. --doug - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org

I have not installed yet OO4 in my iMac. Hopefully you find the solution(s) to your issues.
