[users] How to make AutoFilter act more like Excel's Autofilter
Hello, My organization is trying to move from MS Office to OpenOffice (or it might be read, I'm trying to convince everyone to move from MS Office to OpenOffice in an effort to move our business to use only open source software). We're using OpenOffice 3.2.0 on Ubuntu 10.04. One of my co-workers regularly uses Excel's (2003, if I remember correctly) Autofilter feature, and she has a different experience with OpenOffice's Autofilter. Here are the steps taken in Excel: * Select a row * We go to: Data - Filter - Auto Filter * Dropdown boxes appear for every column * We select an item from the dropdown box; this lists only the items that have been filtered, and it gives her the chance to make a subtotal in one of the empty row below the filter results. Here are the steps taken in OpenOffice: * Select a row * We go to: Data - Filter - Auto Filter, it informs and asks us that The range does not contain column headers. Do you want the first line to be a column header? We select Yes from the dialog box. * Dropdown boxes appear for every column * We make a selection from a dropdown box; this lists the filtered items and other information. She doesn't get the chance to make a subtotal in an empty row below the filter results. Can you help us approach the situation? Should we be doing things differently? What is a column header and would assigning this help us?

I had to install a new HD, which required reinstalling OO.o.

[users] OO Calc Year auto-input feature
I enjoyed the OO Calc Year auto-input feature, whereby Mar 9 [ENTER] becomes Mar 9, 2011 (assumes the current year). However, after upgrading to OO 3.2.1, this feature no longer works, and Mar 9 [ENTER] now becomes Mar 1, 2009. In general, mmm dd translates to 01-mmm-dd in the DDMMYY form. So the Month is retained, but the day as entered is translated to the last 2 digits of the YY and the DD becomes 01. I am using Win XP Professional Ver 5.1 SP3. Do Windows Regional and Language Options play any part in this? I have searched in vain for clues.

The cursor will just stop somewhere. Is there some shortcut like a Select all that would select all the text and formatting with which I could cut and paste into the new, longer doc. Yes: it's called Select All! Go to Edit | Select All (or Ctrl+A). If your cursor is in a table cell, this will select only the text in that cell; just repeat the action to select the whole table and repeat it yet again to select the whole document. In other words, what would be the ideal way to concatenate these chapters in order not to have any unnecessary page breaks with the one single documents. One way is - as you are suggesting - to select the whole text of each document and copy and paste it into a single document. But here's another: o Open the first chapter. o Save it with a new name as the new (long) document. o Put the cursor at the end of the text, where you want chapter 2 to appear. o Go to Insert | File... and browse to and insert your chapter 2 document. o Repeat as necessary. If you have unwanted page breaks, you can remove them in the normal way. If they are manual breaks, put the cursor immediately after the break and press Backspace. I trust this helps.
