Hi there, thank you very much for making openoffice.org what it is - a fantastic, free and free alternative to Microsoft. I use openoffice whenever I can. In spite of the general outstanding quality of openoffice.org, there is one area in which openoffice.org compares rather bleakly with MS Office. This is about the notes (or comments, as MS calls them). Whereas MS Office shows inserted comments conveniently in the margin of the document, openoffice.orgshows a tiny little rectangle that is easy to miss and that you need to hover the mouse over in order to actually see its contents. There is also no way to use formatting (annoying for if you would like to sum up thoughts in bullets) and there does not appear to be a way to highlight a large piece of text that a note refers to it. Just my thoughts. I hope you'll consider making openoffice.org better by taking a look at this. :-) Thanks for listening, and feel free to forward this to whoever this needs to go to... sincerely, Gerben Bossenbroek
