Hi :)
People keep saying the beta is 3.4 but the files show 3.3.4 or 3_3.4.
Presumably people are just using a short-hand that ignores the 1st 3_ ? Which
seems sensible but i get confused thinking there is a different beta for a
major
mile-stone release.
Regards from
Tom :)
Lol, easily done and we all get those sorts of blind-spots from time-to-time.
Glad to hear you have sorted it now, nicely done :)

Hi :)
An accountant once pointed out to me that although we keep hearing farmers
complain about too much sun, too much rain or too little sun, too little rain
and the state of the economy he had never met a poor farmer.
I asked if he had ever met a poor anyone given that he was an accountant.
I have a fairly small spreadsheet that when I last opened it, all there was
on the screen was a spreadsheet with a bunch of letter and numbers. Can

tell me what it is and how I might bet my data back in a form that I
can read ?
Thanks - Bill

Has OOo had any release between 3.3.0 and 3.4? Somehow i get the feeling that
