[libreoffice-users] docx table lines do not show
Libreoffice 3.3 on both Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows XP . I have received several docx files containing tables which do not display correctly in Libreoffice. The outline of the table cells is visible on the page, but the lines themselves do not appear in print preview or when printed. The border style is displayed as 'none', even though there is a border in the original word2007 document. The same thing happens in openoffice.org 3.2.1, but the lines display correctly in openoffice 3.3.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Bug in New Labels wizard?
An update on this bug. I am now running the final 3.3 release of LibreOffice from the Ubuntu PPA (so I don't know if what I am seeing applies to the packages from libreoffice.org). The database list in the Label wizard is now mostly alphabatized, except names starting with lowercase letters are listed after all uppercase letters. All other lists of data sources mixes lowercase and uppercase names.

I have not been able to figure out what order the databases are in. Every other list of databases I have run across in LibreOffice is in alphabetical order (which hasn't always been true in OpenOffice.org).

Re: [libreoffice-users] activated quickstarter on ubuntu
I find that using the quick starter part of OOo mad for difficulty with the Update Manager with updating OOo from their repository. So I never used it. So I decided that it was not something I was going to activate in LibreOffice. If it caused trouble updating some of the item that came from the repository, including some of the extensions in the repository, then it was not something that should be kept active. I find that LibreOffice starts up very quickly and takes only a few seconds from the time I click on the icon to the time I can use it. So is it a real advantage of having the quick starter option active over some of the issues I have seen with Ubuntu. I do remember needing to deactivate it when I was dealing with Windows, when I needed to do some optional updating.
