You can use File > New > Label. That wizard has the ability to insert 
fields from a database. You can look through the list, whether a 
predefined size and layout exists, but it is likely, that you need to 
define your own card size and page layout manually. Don't worry, it is 
easy to do.


Kind regards

Another possibility, if you are using linux, is glabels. I use it for 
spice jar labels and have many different labels on one sheet.

Re: [libreoffice-users] How to change the line color of the comments once and for all

Dear all,

 In Libreoffice Calc 3.6, the line color of the comments is
black. But in Libreoffice Calc 4.3.7, the color is changed. Although we
can change the color back to black by Right click the comment --
click [Line] -- change the color, it is really troublesome for all
the calc files. Please help to give the setting that we can do once and
for all.

  Thank you and best regards.

By Membership, do you mean staff or clients?

Inventory?
What the organization owns (computers, chairs, etc)?
What it gives away (clothes, food, money?
What it sells (like a charity store)?

FORMAT  PAGE  BACKGROUND  as GRAPHIC

Fiddle from there. Reset your margins to compensate for the graphic.

You may need to open a graphic program and resize the image to your page 
size (8.5x11 or whatever).


A lot depends on how your printer handles printing to the edges of the 
paper.

Mine will print to left-right fine but always leaves 1/2 in on top-bottom.
Therefore, I need something with white at the top bottom to look right.

[libreoffice-users] Romove all pictures

2015-02-12 Thread Emil Payne
There are times when I copy  paste from websites to Calc. Things like 
lists of TV stations or Twitter followers.


When I do so it also captures all the images and pastes them to the 
document.


This causes a big mess since most of the images cover each other and do 
not align with their respective text entry.


I have to click them one by one and delete them. With a big list this 
takes a lot of time.


Is there a way of removing all images at once?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Font color based on value

2015-01-16 Thread Emil Payne
Thanks!  For others, I've screen captured one set of conditions to show 
what I did. I had to set the lower limit to include ABOVE 1 so that 
empty cells wouldn't turn red. I also set a style for normal entries to 
ensure they didn't change color somehow.

No worries!

I have a graph with several lines. I'd like line 1 set so that when I 
enter a value in the box, that value would stay black if between an 
upper and lower limit (e.g. 50-100) and to change to a red font if 
outside that limit. Then line 2 would have a different set of limits 
as would line 3. Is this possible to automate?

Your first image is of a range of cells but you start by referring to 
a chart. If you are talking about setting the colour of lines on a 
chart, I don't see any way to automate that.


But I'm guessing that you want the values you enter in cells (not 
boxes) to assume different text colours depending on their values. 
That's possible.


o Select each range of cells to which you want this aspect to apply 
and go to Format | Conditional Formatting... . Color scale will give 
you background colours, but for text colours you probably need Condition.

o Set the required conditions for data values.
o Select cell styles appropriately - either from existing styles or 
using the New Style facility to create them on the fly. Text colour is 
selected on the Font Effects tab of the Cell Style dialogue.


Note that - as you require - you can set different conditions for 
different ranges of data cells, reusing existing cell styles or 
creating new ones as preferred.


I trust this helps.

[libreoffice-users] Using mean Average in formula

2015-01-15 Thread Emil Payne
I'm a home user with not a lot of spreadsheet experience.

I've got a graph that includes a mean average line. I'd like to take the
value of that line (e.g. MV=180) and use it in a formula (e.g. x=4*MV+16)
and use that answer to populate a field.

How do I get MV into the formula?
