Re: Adjustment of high limit and low Limit in AOO-Calc Line Chart

2016-09-21 Thread Vince B.
Thank you, Brian. As is the usual case, your concise hints are extremely 
helpful.  Yes, my issue was in regard to the Y-axis scaling. 

I hope you have a successful trip. 

Regards, 
Vince

Opening docs on laptop win 10 from win XP on old computer

2016-09-21 Thread danwade2...@comcast.net
Don't seem to have a problem opening spreadsheets from win XP.

Have not been able to open wordprocessing docs...XP doc has .wps and after
copying to flash drive and trying to open on laptop the .wps changes to
Window Media Player and doc will not open.

Am I not following the right path?

Trip? What trip? Do you know something I don't?!

It's possible that I do!

However, my apology; I mixed up you for another poster (Rory).

And where does OpenOffice fit into your problem?
All you mention is XP, Win 10, doc and wps

The .wps file was produced by Microsoft Works, and to my knowledge, only Works 
will open it. If you can find a copy somewhere, open it and save as .txt or 
.rtf in order to be able to save the content. The formatting will be mostly 
lost, but you’ll have the content that can be opened by AOO; then you can 
reformat it if desired.

There are a number of entries in Google on how to open such a file. The 
ones I saw depend on another Microsoft program, like Word. One of them 
said to
open the file in a Word document, or as I understand it, start a Word 
document program, and then select OPEN (if that's the command) and then 
open the .wps
file as if it were a regular Word file, and it will. Maybe this would 
work in one of the many editors or word processor files in 
Linux--wouldn't hurt to try.


There is also in Google a file translate routine from some outfit. 
Unless the file is super confidential, you could just post a copy to 
them and they would send it
back in some format you could read. (I'm sure the translate function is 
automated--nobody would have time to read all the stuff they get sent!)
