apply e-mail program to OpenOffice documents

2017-08-23 Thread PG

I have looked at pretty much all your site for information on HOW to install on 
e-mail program into OpenOffice. When I follow the limited instructions I found 
all I get is “no e-mail program installed” None of your forums appear to give 
any importance to this issue. All I want to do is e-mail a created document to 
an e-mail contact. Please advise. PG

There is no email app for OpenOffice.  You use whatever email app is
installed on your computer.  Many people use Thunderbird.

When you have an email app installed, you can use it to send documents.

RE: Start next row on new page

2017-08-23 Thread B. de Lange
Dear Brian,

Thank you very much. But I was not clear in my question.
In my table I like to have a row on the next page, while there is still room
on the page left and without splitting the table. Is that possible? In fact
I start with a new subject, but more information can be added later.

Kind regards,

Bert de Lange

There are various ways to do this.

o Go to Table | Table Properties | Text Flow (or right-click | Table... |
Text Flow) and note the options "Allow table to split across pages and
columns" and "Allow row to break across pages and columns". Toggle those
settings to achieve what you need. Note that the first one applies to the
entire table, whereas the second can be applied to rows generally or
separately, either by selecting the relevant row(s) before applying a change
or else by using right-click 
| Row > | Allow Row to Break Across Pages and Columns" instead. This
is the ideal method if all you need is to avoid a row being split across a
page break.

o You can construct two separate tables. If you have already created your
table, you can split it into two. With the cursor in the part of the row on
the first page, go to Table | Split Table (or right-click 
| Split Table). Then you can place the second table however you wish
using the normal facilities.

I trust this helps.

Thanks for the reply. Maybe I did not make myself clear, I know there is no 
e-mail app etc,  I have two e-mail programs either one of which I would like to 
use to send an OpenOffice document. What I need is the instruction on how to 
make that happen. The OpenOffice site offers no help. Thanks PG

I wonder if the enquirer's "Sent from Mail for Windows 10" gives a clue?

I've never used Mail.  On my W10 virtual machine, I have Thunderbird and
when I email a document from OO, Thunderbird automagically opens a
compose window.

Compose your email in your mail client and select "attach", this should offer 
you the File Manager dialogue box, select whatever it is you wish to attach and 
away you go.

No probs!


But I was not clear in my question.


Oh, I suspect you were.

still room on the page left and without splitting the table. Is that possible?


I don't see any way to do that. The help text says that the "Allow 
table to split across pages and columns" option "[a]llows a page 
break or column break between the rows of a table", but I suspect 
that refers to a natural and necessary break, not to a manual break.


But the big question is why are you insisting on not using the 
obvious technique of splitting the table? There seems no difference 
in appearance between a single table and separate tables except for 
any borders, and surely you wouldn't want borders spanning the unused 
part of the first page anyway? Separate tables would also mean that 
adjustments to column widths would apply separately, which might 
increase work very slightly. You can add extra rows at the bottom of 
the first table as easily as you could add them between existing rows 
of a single table, of course.


I always think of question like this as being rather like "How do I 
turn right in my car without using the steering wheel?". The steering 
wheel is provided for the purpose, so why not use it?

Install the app, such as Thunderbird.  Then, ensure it's the default app
in Windows.  It should then be automatically selected when you try to
email a document.
