I have a problem that I hope this group can help me with.
Simply stated, I work with very large documents, some in excess of
100 pages. They are either created in odt format or converted from
doc or docx to odt when I get them. While working with these
documents, if I save the file and then close it, it reopens at the
beginning of the file, not at point in the document where I stopped
working and saved it. To find my previous stopping point, I
generally insert a string of "x's" so that I can find my stopping
point but sometimes I forget. LO did not do this on 2 other
computers that I used previously. OO did not do this originally
either but the problem appeared with v. 3.
I have recently had to move to a new laptop computer. This problem
did not happen with LO installations on my 2 previous laptops. The
first one, an HP running MS Vista and the second, an HP running
Windows 7. The Vista laptop had this problem with OO v. 3 but it
disappeared with the initial installation of LO. When the HP Vista
laptop failed, LO was installed on a new HP laptop running Win7 and
it always opened my files at the previous save point. LO was
installed clean (from the same saved installation file that I used on
the Vista computer) on the Win7 laptop and the problem did not
occur. That new Win7 laptop was unsatisfactory, it was returned and
replaced with the current Dell Win7 and again LO was installed from
the original LO download. Now the odt files no longer open at the
previous save point.
Help! Is the problem with my OS settings? (I can't be sure that the
Win7 settings are the same on both Win7 computers.) Something
different between HP Win7 and Dell Win7? Or is it something in my
configuration of LO? If so, is there a configuration setting I can
change? Or was there an upgrade to LO that was somehow installed on
my computer?
Current LO version is listed as:
LibreOffice 3.3.0
OOO330m19 (Build:6)
tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4
