RE: mail merge not working

Jonathan, the problem seems to be the two columns A and B which are hidden and empty !. They contain no data and seem to confuse AOO Base. Show the two columns again and fill one of them with an incrementing ID Remove (if possible, the remaining empty column from the spreadsheet) No need to

Re: Support needed please!

Installing the new version should do that for you. No need to uninstall 4.1.7 ( unless you have to make space for it to install, but that will also be monitored by the new install) Try if installing the new version will run. It should take over your settings for the old installed version.

Ik ga er maar even van uit dat je Windows gebruikt? Kan zijn dat de installatiebestanden zijn verwijderd waardoor 4.1.14 niet goed wil installeren. Kijk eens bij de Instellingen > Programma's verwijderen of 4.1.13 daar nog staat. Als dat zo is, probeer die dan eens te Repareren en, als dat

Confirmed. Win 10 and AOO 4.1.12 (Dutch) Seems toggling with "Find" also instantiates some toggling with "Format" After "Find" is disappeared, trying to re-instantiate with View - Toolbars makes "Format" disappear. Choosing "Format" in View - Toolbars brings "Find" back, but not "Format" Seems

Matthias, Hard to move something that isn't there :-) However, moving any toolbar a small bit brings back Format as well as Find. On 2022/05/19 13:11:25 Matthias Seidel wrote: > Hi Dick, > [[snip]] > > > > Seems toggling with "Find" also instantiates some toggling with "Format" > > After "Find"

Re: Open Office Icon in Taskbar

David, do you have a shortcut on the Desktop with the Seagulls logo (round blue icon with 2 white flying forms)? If so you can pin that shortcut to the taskbar. It will show the Seagulls (at least at my Desktop) Otherwise you might try to create a new shortcut on the Desktop and then change

Re: OpenOffice locked up

Try to renew your userprofile. Close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter (if enabled) Go to C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice\4 There is a folder called user. Rename that folder to something else, for instance "user_old" Go back and restart OpenOffice. It will make a new folder
