Dear List Participants (Frank, Martin, and anyone who takes interest)
Can someone please comment on my question whether there exists--or will
exist- a function like ONE NOTE in OPEN OFFICE (One Note being a  Microsoft
Office 2007 feature that ties together all e-files into one page.
If it isnt present now, will it be developed? If not might you consider it?
Lots of people may  take ONE NOTE as a competitive point of difference
between Microsoft Office and Open Office (among other things).
--Your advice is appreciated
Terry Olesen in Perth (about to purchase Microsoft 2007 Office
unfortunately)
