You should at least try to work out problems for yourself and if anyone is kind enough to attempt to solve another's problem, you should perhaps report back as to what did or did not work for you. Attachments, as I understand it, unless they are in an OOo format, will automatically be stripped from any post that you attempt to send. If you have something that you want someone to look at and it is not an OOo document of some kind, then you should send a link to where it can be downloaded from. Then if anyone is interested in looking at it further, they will download and examine it. It would be preferable that even if your attachment was in OOo format, that you find some alternative venue to host it at and not send attachments of any kind into the list. (I hope that you are not one of those folks who have been suckered into buying OOo and have been pointed to this list as being your "paid for subscription, help desk".) Your attachment is not available for viewing. > Brian Barker wrote: >> At 18:59 05/03/2009 -0500, Nobody Noname wrote: >>> Something I've taken for granted in Microsoft Office (and virtually >>> every other word processor/text editor) is that if I cut or copy text >>> from some place and paste it to the program, the whole thing is >>> copied over.
