The box is the default when you open LibreOffice. If you want to start directly with writer, you can: - start from a terminal with "swriter" (without the quotes)
Sigrid, I'll put this in the shell script rather than the default 'soffice' that seemed to work (it did with OO.o).
If you have them installed using the OS tools, then they should be available for use with LibO as well. I don't know, what you can try now. But maybe someone else has an idea.
Yes, they should all be recognized, but they're not. That's why I ask. Perhaps someone else can help (off-list will work, too).
Yes, Calc has this ability. The time format should not matter. Can you check the format of your cells with the times? Or better, the cells, that will contain your results. The format code should look like this: [HH]:MM:SS The square brackets around the HH indicate, that you can get more than 24 hours in total. Subtracting the start time from the end time should be sufficient.
When I change the format of the duration cell to time (hh:mm), I now get the proper value; it was user error on my part. The follow up question is how do I multiply the value of this cell by an hourly rate (cell format numeric) to calculate the amount owed? Calc gets upset trying to multiply a time (say 06:00) by a currency (say $20.00) to produce a total currency value of $120.00.
