Maybe, but not everyone is called to spend a whole lot of time advocating for change in this software. I've spent a lot of time in these newsgroups, and for every time I received a satisfactory answer on how to do something, there were five times where either it couldn't be done or there wasn't even a reply. At some point the people at the top - and I am not called to be one of them - are responsible for the logic and feel of the program. And at some point each user must decide whether he can work with what he's given. My helping thus far has been to try to supply answers to other users with problems. Search my posts and see that my goal is always to be helpful. But the Bible instructs us to speak the truth in love; there's a place for saying we've got a problem we need to deal with. No doubt not everyone agrees with me; that's fine. The issue I face is whether I should continue with the program or re-migrate. I hate doing that, because I hate the way MS throws its weight around (frankly, I wish Ami Pro was still around). So I've held off on the decision. And my user needs are not as deep as they used to be. But however I decide, it's only honest to say that I have this tension concerning OO. fwiw. p. -- Using OOo 2.0.3 on Win XP sp2. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
