People at,
I discovered your OpenOffice today on the Internet. Why not I said and discovered in about three seconds that it solves a problem I've been having with Word for over ten years. So I'm yours for life. Two critical suggestions however please, and let me know when somebody has done the fix. I am doing currently doing a large data project that involves a number of files in a number of different directories spread between two drives. Some of the files have the same file names and I use the paths to tell me which is which. Which is problem number one. OpenOffice shows the file name only at the top left of an open file. To tell which file I'm in, if say I've gone to another file and need to come back to say do a paste, I have to check the file by using 'Save As'. Then clicking along until I see the whole path so as not to edit in the wrong file. Every single time. Grrrrr. Can you please show the whole path at the top left of each file. You have the whole line to do it in so why not. Mammoth time saver. Thank you. Second, every time I want to open another file with one or more already opened, the pull down is defaulted at 'Documents'. Same as Word. Colossally irritating. It should open at the last directory I was in even after closing out OpenOffice and returning later, as that is most likely where I want to return to if in the middle of something. At the very least I can usually get to where I want to go a lot easier than starting out from 'Documents' every single time. I'm not four or a Grandmother. Thank you, and sincerely, cl.
