When I put USER or CHANNEL in the 'Search for' box, and replace with \n&, it's adding a space above the line where USER or CHANNEL occurs? Er, it will! I want it to append the line with USER or CHANNEL to the line above. I understood from what you said before that you wanted to do this with CHANNEL: but *not* with "USER:". Did I do this wrong? Possibly. Your example text had multiple lines (paragraphs, in fact) for each individual but also multiple individuals. I suggested two processes here. The first one is to search for $ and replace with a single space. This will run together not only all the paragraphs for one individual but also those for all individuals. You now have a single paragraph. That many seem wrong, but be patient. If you want each user now to be in a separate paragraph (what you are calling a "line"), perform a second, separate Find & Replace, replacing "USER:" with "\n&" (no quotes, of course). This inserts a paragraph break before each "USER:", so that each individual is now in a separate paragraph (and will end up in a separate row of your spreadsheet). This makes sense only *after* you have completed the first Find & Replace. I suggested searching for "USER:" instead of "USER" as you mention above, in case you happened to have the text "USER" elsewhere in the text than as the marker of a new individual. I don't know why you would search for "CHANNEL" - I didn't suggest that. The whole point was to merge the paragraphs, wasn't it? If you now want to remove some of those colons, you can now carry out a third Find & Replace, this time searching for ([:alpha:]): (note that trailing colon) and replacing with $1 . I trust this helps. Brian Barker - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
font-size mismatch between toolbar and text
greets! I have a 40 page document which I sent to the printer; the printer noted the font size in the document I sent is 6.5 pt. I thought it looked small when I had printed out a sample but the toolbar says the text is the intended 10 pt! I am guessing I should reset the user profile but any better advice? this is 4.1.1 on Debian. never ever had this problem before. note too I tried the document on a Windows 7 machine running 4.1.3 with the same discrepancy. f. -- Felmon Davis Let's organize this thing and take all the fun out of it. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
Problem with loading new version.

Google chrome is not my default browser and no applications are being used. Can you advise. Kind Regards Lindsay Burrows

Hi Keith Checked as suggested no soffice processes running. Any other suggestions. Do you know why the older version will not work now.

Filling down in OO Calc
Hi all Could anyone give me the instructions on how to fill down a formula in a column with increments for each row Formula example is =SUM(D2:AM2) and I need to fill in 400 rows in a spreadsheet and put this formula in column C with an incremental formula going into each of the 400 rows. I have tried to do this but the same formula has appeared in all the 400 rows without any increment and I do not want to have to redo each of the formulas row by row. Any help would be appreciated. thanks

Re: Problem with loading new version.
I have no clue. I can't update either. Someone suggested something with aviva. I don't know what that is.

word processor
A few weeks ago, on my Gateway, the word processor I'm stuck with was modified, Apache Project Open Office 4. Some improvement. You've shrunk the display by half, and red-underlined every character I type in, obliterating the spell check function. It's driving me nuts. Give me back what I had, or tell me how to fix this monstrous “improvement.” Gordon Strother glendag...@sbcglobal.net Sent from Mail for Windows 10
