Simple as Pie.

Except for one little thing (I guess you could call me a
nitpicker):  Format is not found on the toolbar.  It is found
on the menu bar.

I have been a proponent of OpenOffice for some time and have
recommended it to all my clients in the past. I have just loaded the
new beta version and I have to say I am very disappointed with it.
After using it for five minutes there are a number of things I find
annoying enough that I will stop recommending it to my clients in the
future. It's as if you have no idea how the average user is using
this program. Two very simple but highly important issues are setting
page view and page margins. No one I know uses Print or Web views.
The standard Normal view from Word is the standard view with all my
clients. And setting page margins is as simple as going to print
setup and entering the in actual value. We can't use the mouse and
cursor to set the margin needed. We need an exact setting...a
number...a value. And the margins did not import from an old Word doc
so every doc now has to have the margins set graphically by hand?  I
don't think so. Not going to happen. We would rather pay for a Word
that do all this work. Thanks for nothing.
