To be honest I never thought I'd receive a reply so quickly. Thanx for doing so. I shall elaborate on the comments wrt yours below. I *can* figure out how to use OO spreadsheet print ranges. I can use OO and MS Excell, and print. Unfortunately, my wife cannot figure it all out and asks me to do the OO spreadsheet printing for her - regularly. The printing must be easy for the general non-technical to use, as MS Office generally is, otherwise the non-technical will reject OO and stick to MS - which my wife seems to do. Regretfully, my wife prefers MS Excell simply because she can figure out how to print - without me to help. So she does the work in OO, and uses Excell to print..... In fact, as far as I can tell, that's the only *major* issue that my wife hates. There is a minor issue in addition. MS Excell allows cell notes to be written comprehensively. OO will display these notes if they are written in in Excell, but does not allow comprehensive notes to be written in in OO. So again my wife uses MS excell to do the cell notes. OO is good, but unfortunately it has areas that are incomprehensible to the non-technical. The non-technical make the product popular, not people like me who are technical. That's the reality. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
