I'm guessing from "sheets" that we are talking about a spreadsheet 
document rather than any other type?


Basically no, I think.

The sheets I have take up only the upper quadrant of a page. I would 
like to fit four sheets on one page. Can this be done?


Yes.

o One way is to make use of the facility that many printers have to 
condense multiple page images to a single printed side. But this will 
be restricted to two images per page, or four - two by two, not four 
by one - six, nine, and so on. This will reduce the size of each 
image to fit the space, so it is likely that you will need to adjust 
the size of the data in the spreadsheet to compensate. Go to File | 
Printer Settings... | Properties... and see what you find.


o But in any case it is very easy (and much more flexible) to 
assemble a copy of whatever material you need to print on a single 
sheet of your spreadsheet, either an existing sheet or a new one 
created for the purpose. Then you can either select printing only 
that sheet or - more easily - mark the material on that sheet as a 
print range, so that only that material is printed automatically.


If this is a once-only operation, you can make the data on the 
printing sheet simply copies of the data elsewhere. But it is more 
sensible to use Edit | Paste Special... (or right-click | Paste 
Special..., or Ctrl+Shift+V) instead of ordinary paste to create the 
data on the new sheet; then tick Link under Options in the Paste 
Special dialogue. This way, the printing sheet will contain 
references to your actual working sheets (as formulae) instead of 
fixed copies of their values, and the printing sheet will update 
automatically as you work on the document.


I trust this helps.

Start by renaming your OpenOffice user profile.

As you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer (sometimes 
called Windows Explorer)
Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a
good choice. Start OpenOffice.

This cures most spellcheck problems.

If it were mine, I’d try to go around it. Open your problem chart. Then open a 
new blank spreadsheet. Select your chart, and choose Select all (Ctrl-A). Copy. 
Then select the new spreadsheet document and paste. Try modifying the 
newly-created document.

Hope that works for you.

CRASH

[Ray Fisher]

Sirs, I have been using Open Office for several years now with no 
problems…until now… I updated a chart that I had saved and when I went to click 
on save as everything locked up and I could do nothing except manually shut my 
computer down. This happened four times. I cannot save the updated chart.
When I restarted my computer manually and tried to update the same chart I get 
a crash notice and info was supposedly sent to someone at Open Office. This 
also happened four times so I have finally given up on updating that chart.. I 
have been able to update that chart in the past every time with no problems 
until now.
Any explanations as to why this is happening? Thanka, Ray

Re: Öffnen im Textdokument

[Günter Feierabend]

Hallo Bernd,

die Datei (Rechnung aus einem Kräuterhaus inklusive Adressen und 
Bestellinhalten), die Du OpenOffice öffnen ließest, ist ein PDF, welches Du 
besser mit einem entsprechend geeigneten Programm (z.B. Acrobat Reader) öffnest.

Hinweis: Ein Menschen-Alter spielt keine Rolle beim Verständnis für 
Computer-Angelegenheiten. Bin kaum „jünger“ als Du.

Gruß
Günter

John,

Please do not blame the moderators. The posts you are referring to in
this thread come from list subscribers and moderators only get to see
these posts at the same time as you and other subscribers receive them.
It is only possible for moderators to take any action that can be taken
after the posts have reached the list. Moderators do contact subscribers
(normally off-list) about posts which contravene the list List Conduct
Guidelines: https://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html

In this instance I would request both Jim and Larry to please read and
take note of those guidelines.

I suspect that you might be suggesting some kind of immediate ban on
posters who breach the guidelines. By their very nature, such decisions
to ban would be very subjective and arbitrary, plus the PMC has not
endowed list moderators with this authority.

While I do not disagree with your sentiments regarding inappropriate
posts damaging the list's effectiveness, there is no proactive action
moderators can take to prevent these "flame wars" from ever starting.

Regards
Dave
