This worked perfectly in versions previous than Jaunty. It doesn't work in Jaunty nor in Karmic. If you add the extension "AltSearch 1.2.2 Alternative Find & Replace for Writer by Tomas Bilek", the extension does the job perfectly like Writer was able in the past versions. I've tried (before a reinstallation of Jaunty) to install OOo 3.1 (using the PPA I think) but the problem remained. In OOo 3.1.1 in Sabayon or in Parsix Linux, the problem doesn't exist. This is useful if you want to present a phonebook spreadsheet in a document in 4 columns with differents formats for the items: you can make a mailing from the spreadsheet but then you need to erase blank lines and page breaks and keep the formating. $ lsb_release -rd: Description: Ubuntu 9.04 Release: 9.04 $ apt-cache policy openoffice.org openoffice.org: Installé : 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 Candidat : 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 Table de version : *** 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 0 500 http://ftp.free.org jaunty-updates/main Packages 500 http://ftp.free.org jaunty-security/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3 0 500 http://ftp.free.org jaunty/main Packages ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.04 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: openoffice.org-core 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: openoffice.org Uname: Linux 2.6.28-16-generic i686 --- Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS "Lucid Lynx" - Release i386 (20100429) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: openoffice.org 1:3.2.0-7ubuntu4 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcEnviron: LANG=fr_FR.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-22.33-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Tags: lucid Uname: Linux 2.6.32-22-generic i686 UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/478804/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
