How can I do in Writer what I have done in MS Word? Specifically when I
import a text file I like to replace single paragraph marks with a
single blank.
In word I would do this sequence:
- replace all ^p^p (2 crlf's or paragraphs) with ##
- replace all ^p (single crlf or paragraph) with ^s
- replace all ## with ^p
This is FAQ item
http://documentation.openoffice.org/faqs/word_processing/016.html and it
is covered in more detail in the manuals. See
http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/ While not specifically for
2.0 the printed user guide is still pretty much valid, if you like hard
copy.
Thanks
btw. Is there a File Import capability?
Try File > Open and select the file type you wish to import from the
File type dorpdown list. OOo doesn't do every foreign format but I think
the most common ones are there for which there is an API.
Thank you - this helps. Now I have to figure out how to do this.
