Hi
I really like OpenOffice.org and recently finished a 200+ pages thesis using
the most valuable options like master documents, etc. (this was version with
1.1.x). I started using MS Office for this work, but soon gave up as their
approach for document merge was messy at best.
However, I had to switch back to MS Office in the meantime for a simple
reason: the use of the spell-checker in bilingual (trilingual) documents. As I
live in Switzerland, such documents are very common. I needed a word processor
that had some kind of per-paragraph spell- and grammar-check. Switching the
default language every time you change the language you write in (as I had to
in OOo) is very annoying.
I still have an eye on the OpenOffice.org development and evolution, but as
far as I know, this feature is still missing. A quick search on the net didn't
promise anything.
I hope this feature request will be considered in a future release
Greetings
Beat Ackermann
