Since we're talking windows (I missed that information from previous post, sorry), making a shortcut that open multiple files is trivial. The only "obstacle" would be to easily get all the file paths. To create the shortcut (on the desktop or anywhere else really): in the start menu, go to the LibreOffice entry (no need to use "calc" specifically), and right-click-drag (drag with the right click) where you want the shortcut. When releasing the mouse button, a menu show up giving the occasion to create a shortcut. At this point, the new shortcut can be edited (right click->properties). In the "target" box, there's something that end with soffice.exe". You can put file names after this. For example, the whole box could read like this (including the quotes): "C:\Program Files (x86)\LibreOffice 4\program\soffice.exe" "E:\Documents\smth1.ods" "E:\smth2.odt" Then click ok. That link will cause LibreOffice to open all the given document. As a final hint, there's a way to *easily* get all the files you want, with their path. - Open a shell (no, it won't hurt) by pressing Win+R, and typing "cmd" as the command - In the shell, type (without the quotes of course): "more > Desktop\filelist.txt" - Drag'n'drop all your files one by one in the shell window, pressing space after each files - When done, press return, then ctrl+c - type "exit" to leave the shell At this point, you have a file named "filelist.txt" on your desktop, containing all files with full path. You just have to copy/paste this string in your shortcut :) As said by others, I'd rather not see LibreOffice itself getting this "feature". It is something that can be achieved rather easily in any OS. One could argue that it's even *the point* of modern systems... -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
