------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Dec 6 06:11:14 -0800 2005 ------- When doing a Copy/Paste operation from Internet Explorer to Writer, it does not work well. It works for very small selections; for example: 1 sentence of text or one image; but does not work well for larger selections. Steps to Repeat Problem: 1. In IE, navigate to a URL with significant content. For example: http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/ProcessScapeWeb.asp 2. Select all of the content of the displayed article; including graphics. 3. Execute Copy (Edit menu/Copy, or Ctrl-C) 4. Open a new text document in Open Office Writer. 5. Paste the content into the OO document. You will notice that significant sections of the document are missing. Also, the graphics are not transfered. Pasting into an OO Writer HTML document works much better, however the graphics are still not transferred. Perhaps the transfer of graphics during copy/paste operations is a configuration setting in OO that I haven't found yet? The above scenario works well in Microsoft Word, so users will expect it to work well in Open Office. I haven't tested the scenario on my FC4 Linux box yet, but I suspect it will have the same results. Except for this copy/paste issue, Open Office Writer is a viable replacement for WORD as my word processor.
