[users] Open Office.Org- 2 programs

2011-02-02 Thread Hanna170 
I noticed that when I am in a spreadsheet and I want to create a word doc I 
have to close the spreadsheet. I cant work in 2 separate programs at one time 
or 
am I just trying to open the second program incorrectly ??

Please respond asap.

Thank you so much, 

Theresa Nelson

From the File menu you should be able to select New- Text Document and 
have a new document open in Writer without closing Calc.

I am not sure what you are doing, but I just tested this myself with  
OpenOffice.org 3.2.0 (for Linux) and there was no problem to open an odt,  
one odg and two ods at the same time, and I don't think there is an  
obvious limit involved.


Exactly how do you try to create a new document? Please explain in as much  
detalils as possible. What do you do and exactly what happens? Error  
messages? Exactly what do they say?


What operating system do you use and what version? What version of  
OpenOffice.org?

You certainly should be able to work on different types of documents at 
the same time.  I often do so.  What is happening that makes you think 
you can't?
