I now have Open Office on my Window 10 Desktop.  I have not been able to open 
documents that I already had.  I get a boxes that ask me for Character Set 
(regions, I’ve tried changing to some that might work, but haven’t had any luck 
yet.),  The whole box is titled ASCII Filter Options.  Default fonts on Times 
New Roman.  Language – English (USA)  Paragraph break CR & LF.  Other options 
CR or LF.  I have used Open Office before and have never run into this problem.

Can you tell me what I need to do to open a document.

Try renaming your OO user profile.

If you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer (sometimes 
called Windows Explorer)
Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a good 
choice. Start OpenOffice.

This cures most spellcheck problems.

Hello,
I use Apache Open Office and would like to insert the file/path into the 
document so I know where it is next time. I’ve tried going to insert, fields, 
other, file name (type), path/file name (format) and insert. When I do this I 
don’t get the path and file name – all I get is “path/file name” added but 
that’s not what I need. How do I add the proper file name of my document that I 
just typed?

Thanks so much.

Hi
Have problem updating to new version 4.1.3.
Checked online forums no help.
Always used your program but now unable to load update or get the old one 
working.
Cannot get my files or even use the program.
It comes back with: Google Chrome process id 9592 - Says I need to close apps 
in use so to update.
Google chrome is not my default browser and no applications are being used.
Can you advise.

I couldn't understand why  the program kept insisting that it hadn't downloaded

It appears that you are having no difficulty downloading the
installation file and as "a veteran user of open office" you are no
doubt downloading Apache OpenOffice from the official source:
http://www.openoffice.org/download/ If that is case, here is a suggestion:
[https://www.openoffice.org/images/aoo-logo-100x100.png]<http://www.openoffice.org/download/>

Apache OpenOffice - Official Download<http://www.openoffice.org/download/>
www.openoffice.org
Official Apache OpenOffice download page. Join the OpenOffice revolution, the 
free office productivity suite with over 125 million trusted downloads.




1) Validate the integrity of the downloaded installation file
as explained here:

www.openoffice.org
Apache OpenOffice - How to verify the integrity of the downloaded file? Get all 
Apache OpenOffice signature and hash value files; Internet - Verify with SHA256 
and MD5




2) Temporarily disconnect the computer from the internet,
disable Avira and retry running the validated installation
file. Then re-enable Avira and reconnect the computer to the
internet.

If the install completes successfully, go to the Avira website support
section: https://www.avira.com/en/support and report that their software

is generating a "false positive", which is blocking the installation of
Apache OpenOffice.

If the install fails, it is likely to be a local issue with the computer
configuration. Substantial pre-release testing of version 4.1.3 was
performed on a number of Windows 10 computers. Apache OpenOffice has
been downloaded by just under four million users this month, a large
proportion of which will have been installed on Windows 10 computers,
with very few problems being reported.

Hope this helps.

 Lexmark does claim to provide drivers for Mac OSX El Capitan.

Please see:

Hopefully you  can install whatever driver you need yourself.

You could tell your email provider to filter specific emails

and for all those which meet the specific criteria,
you could then suggest that they get placed
either in the spam folder, or in the trash.

Re: open office

I hope with the myriad of difficulties, someone will write a book. 

 I wanted to use OpenOffice to paste everything before printing
but some kind person suggested I (not me specifically) download Adobe PDF 
reader. 
 That was a great help.  I don't know exactly who to thank.
You see, when you upgrade to Windows 10
there are programs that are removed,
and one of them, I believe was Adobe PDF reader.  
The Adobe PDF reader allows you to print the PDF with odd numbered or even 
numbered pages.
That's a big help.
And it's free.

Re: OPEN OFFICE 4.1.2 uninstall

[Ella Oblas]

I'm just guessing now.  When you have the current program that is telling you 
that the same program is also running, try going to the upper right hand corner 
and click on the diminish symbol to make the program you are working on 
disappear from the big screen and rest in its diminished form on the task bar.  
Once the current screen is diminished, then anything that was working in the 
background will  appear.  Good luck

Subject: Custom number format code problem

Greetings,

AOO 4.1.2 on Slackware Linux 14.0 (K3.10.17).

I seem to be having a problem with a custom number format in Writer
table cells in a template.  What I want is to display 2 digits to the
right of the decimal point if the value's third digit and beyond is zero
and 3 digits if the value's third digit is non zero.  Examples:
 Value  Display Result
 123.45  >  123.45
 123.456  >  123.456
 123.4562 >  123.456
I am using the following format code to do this:

[$$-409]#,##0.00#;[RED]-[$$-409]#,##0.00#

This format code works as long as I do not change the document's
template (update).  When I open the document again, I get the message
that the template has changed and when I update the template, the format
in the document returns to:

[$$-409]#,##0.000;[RED]-[$$-409]#,##0.000

The root problem seems to be in the template save.  When I change the
template format code to .00# and save it with the save icon, the next
time I open or use the template, it has reverted back to .000.  I
re-read the help on custom format codes and it confirms that what I am
doing is supposed to work.  In fact, it is one of the examples.

Is there something I need to do to make this format code sticky in the
template or is this a bug?

Thanks.
Girvin Herr
