Thanks. I wanted to access writer to post the following, but I
thought I had to register, before posting. When I tried to do this the
program said my email was already registered, so it wouldn-t let me
create another username. This was my problem.
Where did you try to register? If you attempted to register at
OpenOffice.org, then follow the advice as provided by TJ Frazer, he was
right on the money with his recommendations. (he is a pretty smart guy).
I am using OO3.1 on Windows 7 in France. When I start a text, the
program assumes, reasonably, that I am writing Froggylanguage,
Pick self off floor and stop laughing...
and gives me the nice French format that separates quote marks,
question marks etc. by spaces marked with blue lines, which I want to
keep. But I am writing in Obamaspeak,
Boy, the places I could go with that :-)
and when I change languages to use the spellchecker, this format
disappears. If I knew what this format is called, or how to describe
these blue spaces I could probably find the answer. I suppose I could
switch between langauges continually, but there must be an easier way
to do what I want.
Can someone please give me a vocabulary lesson, or point to the solution ?
Is your intent to switch between languages in the same document (a bit
of this language, a bit of that language, etc...). If yes, then you may
want to create a paragraph style for the different purposes in each
language. That may be the easiest way to go for that. If you know that
you want the entire document to be in a specific language, that may
change things a bit. For me, I would probably then write a macro that
changed the selected area to be some language. (then again, if all you
know is macros, then you use them to solve everything).
I am not certain that I fully understand your problem, so my advice is
probably wrong.
If, perchance, you can solve this, then thanks in advance.

you have ever posted to the forum, you may be able to find an old
post and determine your username from an older post. Note that if
you have posted, you can use a wild-card search to try and find
the post that you made based on a username. For example, I went
here: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/search.phtml and entered
*whyte* as the username.
