Open Office 4.1.1 Download problems

2014-08-30 Thread Janis Langins
I checked for updates and was told that version Open Office 4.1.1 was 
available for download.  To do this I was to open and run a 
downloaded zip file.  When I tried to do this my Malware program 
blocked the file as harmful and it has disappeared from my Downloads 
folder.  Anything louche going on?

Thanks on infor about Sudden? Conversion of a file to a read only file

2013-12-06 Thread Janis Langins
Thanks to all who responded with advice about my problem below.  I 
managed to solve it by saving the blocked file to another computer 
(office computer from home computer) where the blocking came off and 
I was able to transfer it back to my original computer.

Many thanks again.
Janis Langins

A file I have updating daily (quite long, about 340 pages) has 
inexplicably for reasons I cannot understand converted to a Read Only 
file.  I have tried to get around this by copy the file from another 
folder where did not convert to a Read Only to overwrite this 
file.  It stays Read Only.  I have erased it and copied from my other 
folder and it becomes a Read Only.

Any idea of what is going on and how can I stop this?
Thank you
Janis Langins

Open Office 4.0.1 and Endnote Proprietary Bibliographic Database

2013-10-19 Thread Janis Langins
Am I missing something?  I note that in Open Office 4.0.1 the feature 
of inserting footnotes directly from the Endnote Bibliographic 
Database is missing.  I could do this in Open Office 4.0.0.

Open Office 4.0.1

2013-10-01 Thread Janis Langins
I see a notice that there is a new version of Apache (4.0.1) with an 
invitation to download.  I checked on my present (4.0.0) version and 
asked for updates and was told that everything is up to date.  Why so?

Connecting paragraph styles with numbering (list) styles

2013-08-23 Thread Janis Langins
I am trying to construct an outline with nested headings for 
lectures.  Following the online manual (ch. 7, p. 259) for Open 
Office, I can create both Paragraph styles and Numbering styles but I 
cannot seem to combine them.  Could I get some sources of information please?
Second problem:  I would like to transfer my new styles (if they 
work) to a document consisting of bits and pieces of previous 
documents with different styles and configure them to the new style 
with consistent renumbering.  There is no information in the manual on this.
Microsoft word seems to have a renumber feature on their Outline mode 
that renumbers a collections of cut and pasted documents to make the 
heading in the new document sequential and consistent.  Open Office 
does not seem to have this.  True?  False?

Any reference to solutions would be appreciated.

Resetting User Profile

2013-04-02 Thread Janis Langins
As a computer illiterate, I painfully tried to follow Hagar's 
suggestion to reset the user profile (I have Windows XP) and got into 
Folder Options and then File Types where there were a lot of 
OpenOffice.org 1.1  Configuration Files, each with a different 
extension, usually of the form S** or X**.  No sign of anything 
saying Path.  Should these be deleted?  If so, which ones?

Open Office Text docs crashing

2013-03-30 Thread Janis Langins
My Open Office docs have an irritating tendency to crash, not just 
once, but after they are retrieved, to crash again and 
again.  Recovery works well  but after recovery the Merry-go-round 
often resumes again.  Moreover, a message tells me to click Next 
during the recovery process and I will get to an Error Report Tool to 
find out reasons for the error.  However, no such tool comes up.

Any explanations or suggestions?
Janis
