hello
it seems that, although text is copied exactly as in OOo Help, it is not
longer correct. So, please check "Selecting Rows and Columns in a Table".
I've checked on my OOo 2.1 running on Linux and the shortcuts are wrong. It
may be possible that on Windows it works as advertised but please check.
I've checked only this shortcuts as they seemed wrong at the first glance.
You're absolutely correct, including under Windows.
In OOo 2.3.1 and 2.4 the erroneous 'Help' text that I copied when creating the
document in no longer present. If you upgrade to 2.3.1, or 2.4 (OOo-Dev
presently) then you will find the the Help text is more helpful: basically,
pressing Alt+Insert and then, within 3 seconds, pressing an arrow key will
enable row and column insertion via the keyboard. Alt+Delete performs a similar
function for row and column deletion. I can't account for the behaviour of the
out-of-date (very) version 2.1 as I no longer have access to it.
I'll take an action to thoroughly revue and revise this chapter in the near
future.
