Hello,
I'm novice in Open Office and have some problems with Writer and forms.
I try to create some form in Writer which would be filled in via computer
and then it will be printing.
This form wouldn't be connect with any database.
I'v got problems with numeric field. This field is dedicated to bank
account number, so it should match with IBAN standards
I want correspond with IBAN account length - in Poland bank accounts have
34 digits or 42 when you include spaces.
So, I created a conrol with defined format. In control propertise I have
choosen formatting and defined this user-format:
##_####_####_####_####_####_####_####_####
But those format doesn't work and two strange thigs happend:
1) Writer ignore my numbers which I type in when there are more than 15
digits, ie. I type 1234567890123456789 and Writer received me:
1234567890123460000
Please take your attention to last 5 digits. After 4 its 6 instead of 5
and rest of the digits have replaced by zeros.
2) Writer ignore my format - ie. I type 1234567890123456789 and Writer
received me: 1 234 567 890 123 460 000
so it doesn't collect digith in gruops in my scheme (2 4 4 4 etc.) but in
this one: 1 3 3 3 etc.
Of course the case 1 and 2 are separated by me to show problem in simplest
way but it happens in the same time.
I checked how does Writer works with numeric control without my own format
and the same problem as in point 1 appeared too.
I know how to do in Ms Word but not in Writer.
Thank you very much for any help and suggestions.
P.S. I used OO 1.1.4 on WinXP platform
If you want I can send my file in OOo and in MS Word as a pattern.
Sorry for my english - I'm novice in this language too :)
