Hi,

AFAIK the drop-down part of the paste button is automatically shown as 
soon as more than one option would be available.


Sincerely,

I don't see it. Attached is a screen shot of the visible buttons. 
FWIW I'm using OS X and AOO 4.1.1


Your picture is of the Visible Buttons drop-down for the Formatting 
toolbar. The Paste button is instead in the Standard toolbar (and you 
should find it appears by default and does not need to be selected).


I trust this helps.

I am writing my memoirs and would like the Open Office program to
automatically number pages.  I can get it to number one page but not all at
once.
Since I am constantly copy and pasting I would like not to have to
renumber pages each time.  How do I do it?


1. from the menu "Insert | Footer | Default" (this presumes you want page
number at the bottom of the page)
2. from the menu "Insert | Fields | Page Number" (after step 1 the cursor
will already be in the footer)
3. type a space, the word "of", and another space
4. from the menu "Insert | Fields | Page Count"

If you only wish a page number and don't care to display the total count of
pages then only step 1 and 2 are needed
If you wish to show total pages too then step 4 is required, step 3 can of
course be any text that's meaningful to you

Thank you, got it done.

OpenOffice Calc problem

2015-05-26 Thread Old West Graphics


Hello,

I use OpenOffice for spreadsheet applications. Some started from an XLS file 
(imported file), then I save them as an ODS file. My problem is that MOST of 
the time the spreadsheet will NOT close when I want it to close. I usually 
have to force it to close, which means I always have to run the recovery for 
the file when that happens. Can you tell me why this almost ALWAYS happens 
in OpenOffice and if there is anything differently I can do so I won't 
always have this experience?


I am running OpenOffice.org Calc, V3.3.0, OS is Windows Vista Home 32 bit on 
a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop.

Of course I don't have a clue what is causing your problem, but if it was
me, my first step would be to replace that old version of Apache OpenOffice
with the most current one and see if the problem persists.

If that doesn't help, I would suspect that there is something in the
original XLS file that doesn't convert properly to the ODS format. To test
this, I would probably open a new spreadsheet, then open your problem
spreadsheet and copy all the cells from the old to the new file and then
save the new file to another name.

If the problem still persists, I would try the same thing again, but this
time not copying cell formats, just formulas and values. If this works, I
would format the spreadsheet manually and continue using it instead of the
old one.

If this doesn't turn out well, I would probably scratch my head for a while
and come up with something new, but I don't know what at the moment…

So a little bit of a trial and error approach, that is… :)



Kind regards

Johnny Rosenberg

Email association

2015-05-26 Thread jamiekch
Not understanding why I can't attach something from OO to my email.  I really 
don't know what to do about this.  I have been reading and trying but nothing.  
I have Comcast.net.  I don’t have a lot of experience with computer functions 
but I have been trying to figure this out. Looking forward to being able to get 
this working.


Thanks

2015-05-26 Thread Klaus Muth
Attaching a file to an EMail has nothing to do with OpenOffice - you use your
email program to find and attach the file to your email. To do so you have to
know
1. how to attach a file,
2. where the file is located on your computer (Usually on "My Documents")
   and
3. most important: whether the recipient can open the attachment.

1. can be answered by comcast.net support, 2. is only known by you.

The answer to 3 is in most cases "no", because the recipients needs
OpenOffice or LibreOffice or some Microsoft Word Plugin installed to open an
OpenOffice File.

Most probably you want to export your file as PDF and attach the PDF file to
your email.
