I did, right after I hit "send."


Tim - me - "Kracked P P" is short for Kracked Press Production. That was 
my first company, with krackedpress.com as its domain.


To be honest, I learned several computer languages on mainframe 
computers while suffering from Dyslexia.  Then had to deal with the 
aftermath of 3 strokes.  I now keep important info, commands, and such, 
in various types of physical and digital "sticky notes".


I know that others might not do things my way, or may have better ways.  
Yet, after the first stroke I had to look into "easier" work as a 
substitute teacher, while taking classes at night.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Calc multiplication & division formulas acting strangely (Mac 5.2.3)

This is exactly what you will see if your settings are for a locale 
which uses the comma instead of the point as the fractional separator 
(as many do). You can confirm this easily by entering (to modify your 
first example):

=4*1,5
- which should work.

You need to tell Calc to expect the point as the fractional 
separator. Before installing any application software, select 
appropriate locale settings in your operating system. Only if 
necessary, modify the settings in the application. In LibreOffice, go 
to Tools | Options... | Language Settings | Languages and make 
appropriate selections there. (Oh, on the Mac, for "Tools | 
Options..." read "LibreOffice | Preferences".)


I trust this helps.

[libreoffice-users] Calc multiplication & division formulas acting strangely (Mac 5.2.3)

2016-11-06 Thread bunk3m
Today I created a spreadsheet in 5.2.3 (Mac) and each time I try to do a 
multiplication with a decimal, Calc gives me a #NAME?.


In cell A1R1 =4*1.5 gives #NAME?

In each spreadsheet that I've opened I get the same problem.

When I do 4*150%, Calc changes the formula to =4*1.5 and gives 6.

Then I try =4/1.5 and I get #NAME?

The cell is formatted as Number:General so it should calculate.

I've opened spreadsheets created in Excel in LO Calc and they have the 
same problem.


Functions are OK as far as I can tell.

I've checked all formats, settings that make sense, Googled and checked 
the help if something has changed but I'm at a loss.


??What's going on here??

What should I be looking into?

Hullo Ken !

There's a lot of wisdom in the old aphorism to the effect that if it ain't
broke, don't fix it​, and Mint 17.3 works very well - even if I myself find
Mint 18 just a little bit better.


I scrounged an old 2005 Dell Inspiron and installed 18 with the XFCE 
desktop today.  I like that interface if I'm the one using it.  But for 
beginners, I still think the Cinnamon desktop might be easier to grasp 
for newbies to computers.



In any event, someone on the Linux Mint
Forum for printers and scanners (
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewforum.php?f=51) might be able to suggest
solutions for the specific problems you're having printing from LO Calc on
your Samsung laser printer - perhaps worth a try ?...


Well, 5.1.5 didn't solve the problem.  But I almost never use a 
spreadsheet, so I'm not going to worry about it for now.



With regard to easily keeping your installation of LO updated on Mint, you
might want to consider installing the PPA (
https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa). I can confirm that
it works like a charm, and you don't have to download and install the .deb
files yourself !...

Hi Tim,

What I do is unpack the install files [I use .deb files] and place
them all in a temporary folder I call "lib".  Nice and simple, I
have that folder in the "home" folder called "timothy".

This will give me "/home/timothy/lib" while using the file manager
  package [on Mint] called "Caja".


Then I use the "Mate Terminal" [default command line for the MATE
desktop GUI]

This is my starting point for this laptop - yours will look
different since you will not have the same laptop and user name.
This is the default user folder for my laptop.

timothy@Gateway-NE56R12u:~$

I type in "cd lib"

timothy@Gateway-NE56R12u:~$ cd lib

I get this folder shown

timothy@Gateway-NE56R12u:~/lib$

At this point I use this command to install all of the .deb files
from that folder. I tend to place both the language and help .deb
files - if needed - in a different folder like lib2.

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

This will prompt me to five my superuser password.  Then it will
start a "long" install process for all of the .deb files in the
folder. The RPM system would have some different names for the
commands I use for the DEB based Linux OS [ I use Ubuntu with Mate
desktop]

So, if you have a folder off your home folder [or directory] with
the name of "lib" [home/timothy/lib], the command line is a very
easy route.

cd lib

sudo dpkg -i *.deb


After looking for this in the web I would make it the same way you
have described here. It's a little bit different to the tool, which is
delivered with OpenSuSE for system-managing with YAST, but it will
work well.
Don't know how to add a dircetory as repository in other sytems. But
with OpenSUSE it works well.

Regards

Robert




This installation method all looks overly complicated to me, and is one
of the reasons that I swapped over to MX-Linux where the system comes
as a package with installation instructions/prompts included. Plus the
bonus
that the User Manual can be read/downloaded beforehand.

Gordon.



[pardon me for issues in this text, since I have not slept much in the
past week]

I can find free ebooks for Ubuntu that have a lot of info about how to
install and run Ubuntu.

I keep the install commands in a "sticky note" on my laptop's display.


I've got a small text file called "Useful Linux commands", one of which 
lets you access a Mac formatted HD.



Actually I have "heard", from one of the email lists I read, of someone
made a singles script to run that allows people to do all of the
commands needed to install LO with needed prompts for password and
yes/no.  The only scripting I do is for the backups my internal 6.25 TB
of data files to USB external drives. I need 6+ "rsync" commands to do
the type of complex I need to make sure many of my folders have 4+
copies of many audio/video files and photo folders.  This way I make
sure all my digital photos and videos taken/recorded since 2005.  Same
with other files/content I want/need to keep. Many I cannot find online
anymore.

For the other parts of this thread, I do not use a PPA for LibreOffice,
since I want to have the option to upgrade or downgrade LO when I want
to.  I have used PPAs in the past and have a few as well.  For the users
that do not install a PPA into the repository, most have instructions
how to install it.

I used OpenSUSE on a system that originally shipped with a paid version
ending with "SUSE".  After a while it was switched to Ubuntu.  I have
never heard anything about MX-Linux.  I have used Ubuntu as my main OS
since 2009. I chose Linux for the free software that was getting too
expensive to buy what I needed for Windows XP and later Win7.

For every installation on linux you could
- - install as root/SuperUser
- - install as user in your own directory

Install as root/SuperUser:
1. Upack the files you downloaded (program, help, language)
2. Create a directory which you could call as you want (local_sources)
3. Move the *.deb-packages (or *.rpm-packages) to this directory
4. Use your install-program and add the directory as a local source
for your installer.
5. Now you could choose the directory with your installer and could
install all packages from there.


I did OK until step 4, and then my lack of basic Linux knowledge
reared it's ugly head.  ROFL

In Mint 17.3, under Administration I see Software Manager, Software
Sources, and Synaptic Package Manager.  But in none of those do I
recognize anything that lets me point to folder I created.  I.E. a
point and click method.  Is one of these the "install-program" you are
referring to?

Would the folder I created now be called a repository?  If so, do I
input the complete path?  Which means I need to learn how Linux
structures pathnames.

Where can a find a truly beginner's guide for this type of
information? I've noticed over the years that many "beginners"
articles are not truly beginners articles at all, the articles already
assume some basic level of knowledge.  Knowledge that does not always
exist.  :-(

Hi, Robert,

I went to the link you provided, and followed the instructions for 
Graphic Installation.  I thought I'd done something wrong, but don't 
think I did.


Every deb package gave me a message the dependency was not satisfiable, 
or something like that.  So I don't know what went wrong.


As I told Virgil Arrington, I'll go to the Linux Mint forums and find 
out how to get this done.

After this the wizard should work. And this will be the better way to

When creating a form I have been used all the times the wizard and

Is Java working well on the system? See

You don't need a button there. There must be a navigationbar at the
bottom of the form-window. There you could save data by pressing the
save-button or by moving to another row.

Is the form connected to a table of the database? Are the textboxes
connected to fields of the database?

[libreoffice-users] Creating Form in Base and connect it to database

2016-11-06 Thread csanyipal
Hi,

I have running PostgreSQL server on my laptop.

I have installed LibreOffice version 5.1.4.2 out there.

I created new Base file with connection to one of mine database.
Within Base I created a Form ( not with Form Wizard, because it is not
working ( Why? )).
On the Form I have labels and text boxes and a button.
The button should make changes in database when clicked. Mybe it is not
necessary this button at all?

I do not know what to do when editing this Form to get connected an
approppriate text box with approppriate field in database record?

Because right now there is nothing happen if I run this Form and fill out
text boxes.
