I have found the following problems recently with OO that everybody
raves about. I installed the latest version of OO wordprocessor on
daughters PC. With some documents the spell checker won't work. It
tells you spell checking complete when it hasn't done one. If you copy
the document & paste it into a blank new document, the word processor
works. For some documents it works perfectly 1st time. It seems it
doesn't always access the spell library - then it malfunctions. To
stop arguments in my house I had to load MS Word and since then she
has had no problems at all !!!
UNSW doing some trail. They asked me if I had Excell. I said I have
Excell on one machne and OO version on the PC they will be using.
They however found a big data set only partially displays in OO
version. They told me if they open it in excell the whole dataset is
displayed. They proved it to me by showing me. Why OO does this I
don't know - I'm sure some settings need to be changed, but UNSW staff
told me with excell it just works perfectly every-time. They had same
problems with other people using OO.
Were these applications written in an open document or some other
proprietary format, Cedric?
