[libreoffice-users] Importing CSV file into Calc with records determined by the number of field separators instead of Line Feeds
People, I need to import a CSV dump from an Android SMS Sqlite DB - the problem is, many of the SMSs have line breaks in the text body of the DB record and this messes up the import into Calc. There does not seem to be any way of saying to Calc: "Count x fields for each record" instead of recognising a record by a LF . . Can anyone think of a nice, easy fix for this problem?

[libreoffice-users] Simple Neural Network idea for Calc
People, I have an idea which I hope will help me understand Neural Networks better - and I wonder if anyone who understands NNs would be interested in helping me to get a shared Google spreadsheet of a very simple NN going. For example the SS could have: - two input nodes - three hidden nodes - one output node all represented on a block of lines where I can copy this block to another block directly below the first block - representing each iteration of a loop in a program - then I can see easily by direct comparison what happens to the set of numbers with each iteration (ie each copied block). What do people think? Is this doable? I looked around and found some Excel example NNs but I don't think they will import into Google Calc - and it would be better for my understanding to do it from scratch anyway . . If we could get it going, it would be Open Source of course and it might be useful for other people who want to understand NNs by looking at a simple example in a familiar environment?

Sadly, your insistence on belaboring this by insulting everyone who suggests a more tolerant approach, lacks such common courtesy. No discourtesy, just making the point that needed to be made and then responding to other ignorant and delusional people who feel compelled to "defend" someone else's sky fairy proselytisation because a logical attack on one sky fairy is an attack on all sky fairies . .

Things that are claimed but can't be proved false are superstitions - nothing to do with tolerance. However, it is true, I have no tolerance for people who claim they know the truth, with absolutely no evidence whatsoever and thousands of years of evidence to the contrary, and proselytise their nonsense on lists where this should not occur. AGAIN - it is unacceptable and offensive to rational people. Anyone who thinks that everyone who disagrees with their own belief is "clueless" seems to me to be scarily arrogant, to me. Don't put words into my mouth - I did not say that - I said you were clueless because of your statements - I stand by what I said and you have only added to this conviction since. See above re Science. But that is just my own personal belief and i'd probably defend individuals who felt the need to postulate alternatives, in a discussion (but preferably not on this mailing list because, as we all seem to agree, this is probably not the place for it). About time! Why didn't you say that in the first place? As someone, who i believe was amazing, once said "An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind".

This has happened at a time when it's popular to attack Muslims for their faith, and for the stereotypes pushed out by mainstream media to demonise and vilify Muslims.

All superstitious and political organisations depend on increasing their numbers, otherwise they die as organisations - it is just marketing - and it is objectionable. or to demean another's faith, as Phil's diatribe does. My "diatribe" is just as valid and provable as Nasrim's diatribe or nonsense . .

You cannot remove page and paragraph formatting, since every page and every paragraph has to have some format or other. But you can reset these to some other value or default. The only page formatting in a Writer document is page style formatting, so you need just to modify the page style(s) in your document or to apply a suitable page style - perhaps Default - to all your material. Open the Styles and Formatting window, put the cursor in turn into each range of pages with a particular style, and double-click the Default style on the Page Styles panel. Your paragraph formatting may be paragraph formatting or paragraph style formatting, but resetting paragraph style formatting seems to trump paragraph formatting, so is all you need to attend to. Open the Styles and Formatting window, select all the material, and double-click the Default style on the Paragraph Styles panel. I trust this helps. Thanks for that info - it did help - I am producing short stories consisting of standard paragraphs for inserting into a templated xhtml file - so I need to get rid of most of the formatting. What I have ended up doing is: - Use your method to get rid of some of the junk from submitted short stories - Export to an xhtml file - Use pandoc to convert to Markdown file format (which removes the rest of the junk I don't need) - Use pandoc to convert back to an xhtml file format which is almost ready to insert into the xhtml template Regards, Phil. -- Philip Rhoades PO Box 896 Cowra NSW 2794 Australia E-mail: p...@pricom.com.au -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

[libreoffice-users] Writer macro to export to PDF - WITH password
People, When I record a macro to export to PDF with file-open password protection, the resulting PDF does in fact have password protection. However, if I run the previously recorded macro again, the resulting PDF is NOT password protected! I have found a mention of this problem with OO but haven't had any success using the suggested solution there with LO . . Another solution would be to use unoconv - but the version on Fedora 18 (0.5.2) does not seem to work with password protection either (although it is in the help info) . . Does anyone have a WORKING macro that will export PDFs with file-open password protection?
