Some people, like me, keep OOo open, but without any documents open. For those people, the switchboard is a nuisance, because it requires that one open, then close a document, to get rid of the switchboard. For example, this morning, the first thing I used OOo, was to create a quick spreadsheet. Then it was for some historical data to be analyzed. Then I opened up my business plan, to see where I should be today. Then I edit some user documentation I'm writing. Had the first email I read this morning been different, the sequence of documents I opened would have been different.

The power users do _not_ have a way to turn off what they perceive (correctly) as junk --- stuff that not only does not contribute to their productivity, but actually damages it. >still don't understand the issue; the same menu items as 2.x are still >available (File/Edit/View/Tools/Window/Help) One has to go three three more steps with OOo 3.0, than with 2.0, to get to the same place. For non-power users, the new setup might be helpful. For power users, it hurts their productivity. jonathon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
